2h+k is a festival dedicated to popular arts and culture. The festival will be held at Vanha ylioppilastalo in Helsinki on 24th of November 2007 6pm-4am. 2h+k (2 rooms and a kitchen) will occupy the entire building of Vanha, and hosts two stages and the bar. The idea behind the festival is to explore and broaden the limits of popular culture as well as the experience of a regular saturday night out in Helsinki.
