In this episode of Tiny Little Victories, I talk with Hanna Manninen about her most fulfilling role today: art gallerist. Hanna worked for decades in the tech industry, elevating people and brands through her unique blend of public relations, marketing, and brand design. It even surprised her when one day, after returning to her hometown of Oulu, Finland, after years abroad that she was approached to buy into an art gallery. The rest is history, and Galleria MABD was formed with her sister (sister power!).
Despite not having a traditional art background, Hanna has approached the new world order of her gallery differently - to make it the most approachable gallery for anyone. She even leaves the lights on after the gallery closes for anyone walking by or sitting on a bus at a red light can gaze and connect to the art. We talk about why the metaverse isn't always the answer, art should be approachable, and how she wants to make Oulu, through MABD, a culture capital by 2026. Tune in and learn what you do with your when you only have 3.5 hours of daylight (it starts with tea).
