What is it like to live in a place without trees, where you can only travel between towns by plane or boat, where winter lasts half a year, and summer days blur together in light that never fades? And what does it mean to see your own culture rise again after generations of being hidden?

Avalek and Studenternes Hus Aarhus invite you to Culture Meets, focusing on Greenland. The event takes place at Det Grønlandske Hus in Aarhus and features talks on Greenlandic culture and history - including the role history plays for Greenlanders today - as well as folklore storytelling, coffee, cake, and food.

17:00 - Folklore storytelling
