This institution under the Nordic Council of Ministers works to strengthen Nordic cooperation through culture. Its Helsinki premises house a Nordic library that hosts artist talks, poetry gatherings and Silent Book Club reading sessions in English, Finnish, Swedish and other Scandinavian languages. It also runs an artist residency and awards grants to cultural projects through its support programmes.
The website is in Swedish, Finnish and English and includes application guidelines and FAQs for each programme. The entrance is wheelchair accessible, there is a hearing loop and a gender-neutral toilet, and cards and mobile payments are accepted.
