Everyone is invited to an Icelandic Evening/Íslensk Kvöldstund á PEI! tonight, Tuesday, January 6, 7:30 pm, in SDU Main Building, Faculty Lounge. On a cold winter's night, settle back into a comfy armchair with a glass of wine and some “Vínarterta” and take in the scenery from the country’s spectacular landscape, listen to the sagas, and enjoy the art and culture of these northern islanders who sailed our way some 1,000 years ago. Prince Edward Island photographer John Sylvester will give a taste of this in a slide show from his recent trip there, whetting your appetite for a closer look at the culture, including a short reading from the sagas, a bit of music, poetry, and a little practice with the language, which was brought by the Norse in the 9th century. Sigga MacEachern, who was originally from Iceland and who now calls Prince Edward Island home, will spice up your “Icelandic Evening” with an introduction to some of the most common words that might be used on your journey. She has also graciously volunteered to provide a sample of a traditional seasonal taste treat. The evening is open to all who have a heart for adventure. Admission is by donation, and there will be a cash bar. Come on to the Faculty Lounge in SDU Main Building for some armchair Icelandic!
