WHAT IS DEMONI RY ?

Demoni ry is the student association of culture students in Metropolia UAS.
We arrange student events, advocate for the rights of culture students and sell student life related products.

HISTORY

A former ceramics factory building in Arabia, Helsinki with the word "Arabia" on the written on the building's wall.

Demoni ry was founded 30th of september 1994 and has existed in three schools: Helsinki School of Art and Communication, Stadia University of Applied Sciences and currently in Metropolia University of Applied Sciences.

In the previous two schools members of Demoni studied in Arabia, Helsinki. When Stadia and Evtek fused to become Metropolia Demoni extended to operate also at the Tikkurila campus. From fall 2017 onwards Demoni has operated once again in a single campus when the students of the Tikkurila campus moved to the Arabia Creative Campus.
