Join Us

Open House Tartu is made possible only with the contribution of volunteers.
Join us and take part in our unique event and fascinating opportunities.

Let's make it happen!

Open House Tartu is organised by many wonderful people interested in urban space and architecture, and the intersection of these fields within our environment. As a volunteer, you have the opportunity to acquaint yourself with the most exciting buildings in Tartu and introduce these same buildings to other enthusiasts. For some of the more unique structures, you may have a chance to witness them in such a stage for the last time.

We also emphasize the culture of volunteering and strive to develop it each year, adding more ways to explore the urban space and gain further experiences in various fields. Through volunteering, you can experience and try your hand at subjects you haven’t worked on before, discovering something new for yourself. Volunteering primarily aims to enrich people and enhance their awareness. Don’t miss out on this opportunity!

As an Open House volunteer, you can contribute to event organization – whether as a tour guide, visitor escort, photographer, or in other roles.
