Finland, Hämeenlinna 7th September, 2013
COUNTRY: Finland
CITY/REGION: Hämeenlinna/Häme
DATE: 7th September, 2013
TIME: 10 am - 4 pm
LOCATION: Verkatehdas, Paasikiventie 2, Hämeenlinna, Finland
Korttien tarinat –foundation helds a postcard event for the 6th time at the Arts and Congress Center Verkatehdas in Hämeenlinna, Finland. This
year the event day is on Saturday 7th September (from 10 am to 4 pm).
And we are going to held a postcrossing meeting there - also for the 6th time. 
In the event there are postcard artists, publishers, collectors, merchants and people who are just interested in postcards. There will be postcard
exhibitions and outlets – a real paradise for cardmaniacs. 
If you too are interested in coming to Finland and joining us, or you know already that you’re in Finland that day, please come to the meeting!
Hämeenlinna is only an hour away from Helsinki, Tampere or Lahti, and the happening place Verkatehdas (marked with "A" in this map) is only 5 minutes walk from the railwaystation.
The meeting will start at 10 am in Verkatehdas. First we will explore the outlets and probably  buy
some  cards , then around noon have coffee and write some postcards
at the Verkatehdas restaurant. At 4.30 pm we’re going to Restaurant Popino to eat some good food. And the meeting will end after our bellies are full.
If you are coming, please let us know about it in the Finnish thread here: https://forum.postcrossing.com/viewthread.php?tid=34035 . You can write in English. 
There is also the list of participants.
Welcome to Hämeenlinna, the paradise of card maniacs!
