The Children’s Cultural Festival in Reykjavik begins today Apr 17, 2018

Audiences at the Harpa Concert Hall are usually a bit older, but today when the 2018 Children’s Culture Festival launches, there will be another crowd like this one: Children who will not just see performances, but also learn to develop some of those artistic and creative-thinking skills through hands-on workshops and interactive performances. The festival’s been held since 2010, with events in multiple locations around the city.
