Herbaria
ABOUT HERBARIA
Herbaria is an opening ceremony for a canceled festival.
Herbaria is an invitation to people in northern Norway and around the world. A Herbarium is a collection of preserved plants. The word aria is Italian and means air, and has since been used
to describe a musical phenomenon - an aria, a melody for a solo voice.
Herbarium, aria, Herbaria.
The Festival in Northern Norway 2020 has been canceled. This year we will not gather for concerts, performances or exhibitions in Harstad. Nevertheless, we want to gather for an experience - a very special opening ceremony
It's just a party if you come.
Outside you can make a small botanical altar, or a small work of art if you want, - by, for and in nature.
We're glad you found your way here.
We look forward to guiding you through this extraordinary, down-to-earth ceremony.
​
We especially hope that these come:
He handsome lifeguard at Grottebadet
She the hairdresser with the pink hair
The one who eats the most blueberries in Blåbærdalen kindergarten
She with the big smile on the international colonial
He who had been looking forward to NUK ever since the taco party last year
She who always orders Napoleon cake at the bakery
She who uses to wear the nice cardigan throughout the Festival
Those who sell the best soft ice cream in northern Norway
She you should have called
The father of him a little quiet that you went to class with in primary school
He's a little quiet as you went to class with in elementary school
She and your friend had a summer flirtation at the Festival last year
He who move
He you will pass by on the way to the store tomorrow
The one you know who lives furthest away
You who read this
Can you help us find out?
And you! It will be nice if you join.
