Small Projects, Grønnegata 23, 9008 Tromsø, Norway thesmallprojects@gmail.com | www.smallprojects.no

Small Projects is located in the center of the Norwegian

Arctic. It began as a nomadic art and community project in Manila, involving a group of artists and activists from the University of the Philippines. Relocated to Tromsø since 2011, it has held events with a special focus on indigenous, local and international artists, working with women 59% of the time.

Small Projects is housed in a malleable space, white-tiled rooms, high ceilings, stairs that welcome visitors and convert into an ad-hoc auditorium, a small kitchen, a fireplace, a bar, a publication and sleeping room, a screening room and a sauna. The spirit of the building, owned by the Norwegian Sami Reindeer Herding Association, the project’s roots and its present location, community building and activism in Manila, resonate with each other and drive Small Projects.Supported by OCA and Kulturrådet.
