Pride 2023 arrived sooner than expected, though that’s usually what time feels like. Norway hosted queer culture the entirety of 2022, and queer people might’ve never felt more relevant, so where are we now? It’s always been easy to look to the periphery whilst defining the opposing forces of our pride movement, but what is the reality of being queer here in Sandefjord — young and old? And how do we as queer people contribute to a narrative that we might not actually wish to strengthen? These are questions Tine and Mabell will highlight this night, in an organic and relaxed conversation, where we hope the audience as well would like to chime in. Open to all ages. Where: Kurbadhagen, Thor Dahls gate 7, Sandefjord at 19:00. Facebook link ↗︎ here. Welcome!

Further reading: Mabell Holand and Tine Semb (Karmaklubb*) met in 2020 as both were involved in the 71BODIES’ production ↗︎ In First Person. Since then, Mabell and Tine have collaborated on several projects, among them providing workshops for young adults and youth, ↗︎ most recently at the MUNCH Museum and ↗︎ Det Gamle Biblioteket as part of Karmaklubb*’s programming. Through common interest and collaboration, a valuable friendship has evolved. Tonight, you can meet them both.
