You can research many things, and our culture is one of them. Doing this year’s Culture Night, Arctic Hub invites children and adults to step into the darkness, where you can chills and become wiser.
As darkness descends over Nuuk, mysterious creatures begin to stir at Arctic Hub.
At Culture Night on January 18, children and adults can learn more about legends, myths, and spirits. You can sit down with actress Ane Marie Ottosen, who tells stories in the light of qulleq.
In another room, you can meet artist Maria Kreutzmann, who has created the book ‘Bestiarium Greenlandic: A Compendium of the mythical creatures, spirits, and strange beings of Greenland.’ Maria Kreuzmann will talk about some mysterious creatures in Greenlandic culture. You can even meet some of the creatures in the dark – if you dare.
“At Arctic Hub, we work to make research accessible to everyone. With this year’s Culture Night, we want to show that you can research many different and fascinating things – and that one of the things you can research is our culture. You can learn more about how if you come to Culture Night with us,” says Daniel Lyberth Hauptmann, acting Head of Secretariat at Arctic Hub.
