Kulturhjerte – a meeting place and development arena for young and adult Smålanders from all over the world!

HeArtBox – creative powerhouse in the heart of the city

Kulturhjerte has started work on furnishing HeArtBox – a creative meeting place for children and young adults from all over Lillehammer and the world.
The project is enormous in both scope and cost – and is only possible because we are already part of a forward-thinking team of creative and energetic players.
And HeArtBox has room for more!

The Kulturhjerte Method

Kulturhjerte is a place where everyone should feel that they belong and that they are heard. A place where children and young people can share their stories, their talent, their language and their culture. A place where adults can come and speak Norwegian, get to know others, and a place where they can come and see the children perform and be proud of their culture.

Ready for a new show

Ready for a new show

Kulturhjerte's 25 young Smålanders are soon ready for a new performance. Since October, they have been working every week on the...

Children and young people with passion

Children and young people from many different countries gathered around one project. The performances we create together are the sum of all the cultural expressions, ideas and skills that the participants in Kulturhjerte convey. We will show Lillehammer who we are!

Instructors with cutting-edge expertise

Director, choreographer, composer, scriptwriter, costume designer, sound and lighting designer: The professional framework helps make the performances an experience everyone should be proud of. Participants, parents, audience and all lillehamringer.

Parents with beating cultural hearts

Parents make up the production groups that voluntarily build sets, sew costumes, serve food and drink, and host the festive performances – which in itself constitutes a social arena.

A big thank you for your fantastic efforts – without them, Kulturhjerte would not have been possible!
