Dear W.O.M.E.N.,

This week seems to be dedicated to the Arts for us women of foreign origin!

Tomorrow during Kvennaborðið, our peer-learning experiment, we will be debating the ongoing production of Madama Butterfly by the Icelandic Opera and the criticism it received (Check out the event below for more info on the issue). Come and practice your Icelandic on important topics in a safe-space. Give your opinion and listen to others'!

This Sunday, the Söguhringur kvenna will say goodbye to the winter and visit together the Reykjavík Art Museum Hafnarhús, including the wonderful group show called Kviksjá.

Finally, the amazing Hennar Rödd - Her Voice is organising a conference on Women of Foreign Origin in the Arts this Saturday. The programme features many talented women of foreign origin who work in the art industry in Iceland and will discuss the challenges they have faced throughout their journey and examine the changes needed to create a more inclusive environment. The conference will take place in English and Icelandic and will have a written translation in English and Polish.
