Scandinavia House: The Nordic Center in America
Description
Inside this lovely, airy space—a fitting homage to the natural simplicity of Scandinavian design—you can walk around the gallery of Scandinavian art, come see classic and cutting-edge movies, live concerts, readings and lectures that celebrate the history and culture of the region, or sign up for a language class in Danish, Norwegian or Swedish; some events are by paid admission. If you find yourself wandering around Midtown, pop in for a light bite at the cheery café and check out the center’s shop for stunning textiles, jewelry, tableware and decorative objects.
