SUMMARY:JULEFEST/CHRISTMAS PARTY
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our Annual Julefest on December 17th from 5-7 pm at the Harrison in Reston! This year marks a very special anniversary for the Norwegian Society. We are celebrating 120 years of gathering the Norwegian community together in the Washington DC area. So dress for the festive occasion and come on out and celebrate with us! \nWe encourage you to bring your favorite Christmas dish for our potluck-style feast – whether it is Norwegian-inspired or not. The Norwegian Society will be sponsoring a Christmas ham\, kransekake\, gløgg\, and soft drinks\, but most other dishes and/or desserts are welcome. Please RSVP below to indicate what you would like to bring and how many people will attend. Since Julenissen (Santa) will most definitely make an appearance\, it would especially be good to know how many children will be present. \nAs you remember from years past\, parking is not available in the front of the building\, but there is ample parking just next to the building in the lot at 1801 Old Reston Avenue\, Reston\, VA 20190. There will be markers to help guide you along the way. \nVelkommen and God Jul!

SUMMARY:Norway in the 21st Century Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Photo courtesy of Dr. Pål Brekke  \nNorway in the 21st Century Luncheon\nwith Norwegian Solar Physicist Pål Brekke April 21 at 12 PM \nSeasons 52 Fresh Grill at Tysons Corner Center\, McLean\, VA \nRSVP below by April 17 (limited spots) \nPrice: $34 for members\, $39 for non-members/guests  \nThe Beautiful Northern Lights and the Dangerous Space Weather\nWhat is more beautiful on a cold winter’s night than catching a glimpse of the northern lights or “aurora borealis” dancing across the sky? This stunning phenomenon is deeply embedded in the mythology of many cultures. A little more than a hundred years ago\, an eccentric Norwegian scientist\, Kristian Birkeland\, realized that the sun bombards the Earth with particles creating the aurora. Today we observe the sun from satellites and can predict the Northern lights. However\, solar storms can also create havoc on our ever-increasing technology-based society. Just recently\, a solar storm knocked down 40 of the SpaceX’ Starling satellites. \nDr. Brekke will take the audience through the history of this phenomenon from ancient times to modern space-based science. He will also show pictures from his recent visit to Svalbard where the world largest optical aurora observatory is located and where NASA launches rockets into the daytime aurora. \nThe lecture will include clips from the award-winning documentary «The Northern Lights – a Magic Experience» as well as new stunning real time video of the Northern Lights. The best places to experience the aurora will be revealed. \nSeasons 52 is conveniently located in Tysons Corner Mall on the lower level. There is ample parking\, and the location is accessible by metro (Silver Line). Here is a link to their website where you will find the address and directions: https://www.seasons52.com/locations/va/mclean/mclean-tysons-corner/4515 \nIncluded in the price is one out of three entrees\, Mini Indulgence Desserts\, Coffee\, Tea (iced)\, and soft drinks. Please pick one the options when you RSVP.\n		\n							\n						\n				REGISTER			\n			\n					\n	 \nDeadline: Register by Sunday\, April 17\, 2022

SUMMARY:Virtual Norway in the 21st Century Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Virtual Norway in the 21st Century Luncheon on December 6 at noon to 1 PM.  \n“Gustav Vigeland – the Man and the Artist”\n  \n \nOn December 6 from noon to 1 PM\, we will be joined by the Director of the Vigeland Museum in Oslo Jarle Strømodden. Mr. Strømodden will give a talk on Gustav Vigeland\, the famous Norwegian sculptor who created all the sculptures in the Vigeland Park in Oslo\, which I am sure many of you have visited. \nDirector Strømodden will talk briefly about Vigeland’s formative years and his early years in Oslo. He will then comment on Vigeland’s travels\, with an emphasis on the trips in the 1890s. He will also talk about three important monuments which were unveiled in 1908 and 1911 in Oslo\, as well as the agreement between Vigeland and the City of Oslo which built a studio for him. Vigeland’s studio later became the Vigeland Museum. The park\, as we know it today\, was not initially a part of this agreement. After the talk\, there will be time for a brief Q&A. \nMr. Strømodden has an MA in Art History from the University of Oslo (1995). He has been the Director of the Vigeland Museum since January 1\, 2006. Previously\, Mr. Strømodden was the Director of Tromsø Kunstforening\, and he has also held the position as Assistant Curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Oslo (now part of the National Museum). \nMake sure to secure your spot by signing up online by December 3. Zoom details will be sent to those who registered a day or two in advance. We look forward to seeing you at our event! \nRead more about the Vigeland Museum here: https://vigeland.museum.no/
