Meeting. Lubna Jaffery
15th November we meet Norway’s minister of culture and equality Lubna Jaffery, who came by our studio practice! When Ewa Lorenc had a Lab-workshop-session. We had a nice chat with Jaffery about the importance of having a stable financial support system for performing art, from municipalities to the Ministry of Culture. The whole ecosystem of creating dance art. We only had 10 minutes but luckily we have @malinvangsnes who love this fast-speed-getting-much-said-in-a-short-time skills. We have high hopes and expectations!
We also in want to express our gratitude to Bergen Dansesenter for supporting dance in Bergen and Vestland, for arranging meetings of great value such as this one. And a ton of other things you do! Free use of dance studio, PR, and the feeling that you ‘have our back’ and cheering for all of us
