The Globe Quiz: Charity Edition

A charity pub quiz in aid of Children’s Cancer Research. So why not come and support a worthy cause, while showing off your trivia knowledge to your colleagues and friends. The quiz’s many sponsors should ensure there are plenty of spot prizes and a bigger raffle than normal. The normal entry price is 25 kroner per head (maximum five per team), and it’s advised you get to the pub by 18:30 if you want to get a good seat ahead of the quiz starting at approximately 19:30.

November edition of SMK Fridays

SMK Fridays returns as the stunning museum extends its opening hours for a diverse night of art, music, film, poetry, talks and a street kitchen. The evening’s theme is ‘things’ and centres around artist Haim Steinbach’s new exhibition, The Window. Four short talks will take place and there will be documentary screenings, along with street food prepared by chef Bernard Chesneau and his rolling kitchen – and plenty of beer and wine to make it the perfect art-filled Friday.

The Artificial Nature Project
Brace yourselves for a highly unpredictable and exciting performance as artists breathe life into the inanimate by throwing materials around the room. Mette Ingvartsen brings us her fourth experimental piece exploring the relationship between the living and lifeless as dancers compose “a body that is no longer made of human flesh, but rather of a floating, flying mass”. Things are bound to get messy as calm contemplative scenes turn into manic chaos.
