Violinist Gabriella Papp and dancer Karin Holmquist invite us into Hertervig’s magical forest in the exhibition Hertervig’s mysteries. Through music and dance, we are brought close to the forest’s elements and its mystique.
We look forward to an interactive dance and music experience in the enchanting universe of Hertervig’s mysteries!
The performance will be shown twice this Saturday, at 12:00 and 14:00, and lasts approximately 30 minutes.
