Discover the Arctic through art at the Museum of Contemporary Circumpolar Art MCCA.
From the enduring impact of colonial legacies to climate change, the exhibits offer powerful insights into life in the Far North.
The circumpolar collection serves as an icebreaker, presenting themes such as:
- The dynamic relationship with the environment, animals, people, and spirituality
- Rich culture of Indigenous Arctic voices and traditions
- Environmental changes and the climate crisis
What's On
Exhibition: Rooted Together: Plants. Earth. Community.
This exhibition, prolonged until the 31. January 2026, invites you to reconnect with the wisdom rooted in plants and the land, and to reflect on what it means to live together on our shared planet.
