Exhibitions

The Scandinavian Cultural Center has three exhibition galleries:

  • Hildahl Gallery: Our main exhibition space inside the Scandinavian Cultural Center. It consists of 6 bays equipped with special lighting, a flexible mounting system, security, and custom display cases.
  • Larson Gallery: Always on view to the public as it is located in the hallway entrance to the Scandinavian Cultural Center. It consists of 5 custom-made, locked display cabinets.
  • Stuen Room: An intimate gallery space where many of our larger household items are displayed, including a selection of furniture. It is also used as our Reading Room. Three sets of locked, glass doors separate this gallery from the shared used space in the Scandinavian Cultural Center.

The exhibitions change at the Scandinavian Cultural Center approximately every other month. Many exhibitions are curated by the Director of the SCC, student interns, and volunteer members of the Exhibition Committee, and with input from the Nordic Studies faculty.

The Scandinavian Cultural Center also is proud to host traveling exhibitions and special exhibitions developed elsewhere in the United States and Scandinavia. Typically, these have been modern art exhibitions.
