As an art centre for the whole of Northern Norway, a presence in the region is an important part of the work of bringing contemporary art to new places and contexts.
North Norwegian Art Centre works regionally in a number of different ways: through curatorial and artistic presence, through dissemination productions for Den kulturelle skolesekken (DKS) where artists travel to schools throughout the region, by being a competence centre for Art in Public Space for municipal projects in the region, and by announcing funding for artist-initiated projects in Northern Norway. We also contribute curatorially and with communication to other cultural events in and outside Lofoten.
