On Thursday and Friday this week, there was a seminar at Narvik Museum to discuss where we stand today and what opportunities we envision in the future.



At the seminar were participants from Museum Nord’s Ofoten department, from Museum Nord’s Research and Development department, and Narvik municipality‘s cultural manager Lena Hope, and Kaj Linde, project manager for the hosting role of the Alpine World Ski Championships 2029.


Head of Culture Lena Hope talked about Narvik municipality’s plans and commercial development plans near the museum.

Kaj Linde, project manager for the hosting role of the Alpine World Ski Championships 2029, talked about many exciting plans and ideas around the World Championships in Narvik.





The participants at the seminar had to challenge their imagination and ideas in various workshop tasks. Among other things, we were challenged to use our imagination for what the world’s most irrelevant museum could be. There were many good ideas and discussions around the table.
