Tiivistelmä

Finland's demographics are set to change dramatically with regards to
its growing number of senior citizens. Pori is a mid-sized city with a
large ageing population, and is home to a suburb in which 46 per cent of
the residents are retirees. This paper focuses on the initiatives
undertaken by the museums catering to the elderly population. The aim is
to investigate resident expectations versus museum resources, and offer
guidelines for promoting equal distribution of culture amongst the
older population and including them in the museums’ diverse service
offerings.
