Pro Puu Association is based in Lahti, Finland, an hour's drive from Helsinki. Pro Puu (eng. Pro Wood) promotes the collaboration of wood professionals. Members of Pro Puu are cabinetmakers, designers and architects.
Pro Puu is housed in a former matchfactory Tikkula in the old Lake Vesijärvi harbour. Sibelius Hall, the new wooden congress and concert center, is a next door neighbor. The premises include a gallery, a shop, office and design spaces as well as an independently operating wood workshop.
The beautiful gallery is splendidly renovated respecting the original architectural features. It is a versatile and popular exhibition space. The association has been able to carry out its original idea to feature large variety of different types of wood related exhibitions in the gallery.
The gallery is a rentable exhibition space, displaying monthly different types of wood related exhibitions. In addition to exhibitions; concerts, seminars and private occasions belong to the activities in the gallery.
