Oslo Open Ung
We have employed two young art mediators through a collaboration with TrAP and their project Keys to the City that gives youth jobs in the cultural sector. The project is called Oslo Open Young. Through this project, young adults get training in how to talk about art with an audience, prepare visits to artists studios, and plan a guided tour for 28 April 2024. They also run our TikTok channel.
ØST KUNST festival 21-27 April
Oslo Open collaborates with ØST KUNST, an annual festival and network for art and culture in Groruddalen. They specialize in providing and creating cultural activities that are relevant to young people. During this year’s ØST KUNST, which coincides with Oslo Open at the end of April, there will be workshops, art exhibitions and other cultural events at Furuset and Trosterud. See the program at Facebook and Instagram.
