“Norway House connects the United States and contemporary Norway through arts, business, and culture.”
Norway House is a forward-thinking, international business and culture organization in Minneapolis, Minnesota dedicated to establishing, renewing, and advancing connections between contemporary Norway and the United States through education and partnerships centered around the arts, business, and culture.
Where We've Been
Born out of the need for a centralized location in the Midwest Norwegian-American community, Norway House has grown to serve as more than just a convening mechanism for local organizations and heritage; it’s also a destination for contemporary Norwegian art and ideas and a hub for cultivating Norwegian and pan-Nordic government and business relationships.
The big, blue Albert Quie Education Center opened its doors on Franklin Avenue, in May of 2015, sharing the block with Mindekirken, the Norwegian Lutheran Memorial Church, a historic monument to Norwegian heritage in Minnesota following the mass migration of immigrants to the United States at the turn of the century. This neighborhood has continued to be a cultural home for immigrants from many backgrounds, as well as the heart of the urban Native American communities in Minneapolis.
In 2017, Norway House was honored with a $5 million challenge grant from the State of Minnesota to expand the current Norway House campus to span the entire block. The King of Norway became a Royal Patron of Norway House, and the Norwegian government invested in the campaign. Together with Mindekirken, this block will solidify its status as the epicenter for Norwegian activities in America.
Land Acknowledgement
Norway House is located on the ancestral and contemporary lands of Indigenous peoples, in the heart of Minneapolis' American Indian Cultural Corridor--one of the largest concentrations of urban indigenous peoples in the United States. "The Norway Block" resides on Dakota land ceded in the Treaties of 1837 and 1851, and we acknowledge the complex and layered history that links Norway House to this space and time.
The purpose of this acknowledgment is to continue to educate our campus and community about this land, and our relationships with it and one another. We are committed to ongoing advocacy for our American Indian neighbors and combatting the erasure of native peoples worldwide.
