Veronika Kivisilla

Veronika Kivisilla has worked as an event coordinator at the Estonian Academy of Sciences’ Under and Tuglas Literary Center since April 2024. Her earlier résumé broadly includes teaching and a decade of project management at the Estonian Writers’ Union. Kivisilla is a member of the Estonian Writers’ Union and has written collections of poetry, short prose, articles, literary reviews, and children’s stories. She has also edited textbooks and anthologies. Nevertheless, organizing cultural events remains Kivisilla’s greatest work-related passion: establishing ties between different people, places, and genres. The main threads she uses in such endeavors include folklore, ecology, horticulture, folk and early music, and cultural ties between Estonia, Finland, and Scandinavia.
