TrAP Talk 2025: Unge stemmer i samtale om kunst, arbeid og tilhørighet
In 2025, TrAP ran the conversation series TrAP Talk, a monthly talk show that brought together young practitioners from Oslo’s art and cultural sector. Across seven conversations, the series addressed key questions related to work, power, representation, education, political participation, and the need for independent spaces. The discussions were open and informal, grounded in the participants’ own experiences.
TrAP har fått nytt styre!
We are proud to present TrAP’s new board for the 2025 to 2027 term. At the annual meeting on May 8, 2025, a board was elected that represents broad expertise and strong commitments from the art and cultural fields in Norway and internationally. Together, they will carry forward TrAP’s work for a more inclusive and innovative arts sector.

Jødisk kunstnernettverk
Jøder er en av Norges nasjonale minoriteter, men tar liten plass i den nasjonale selvbevisstheten. Vår opplevelse er at det er et savn i Norge etter å se levende jødisk kultur representert, både blant jødiske nordmenn og befolkningen ellers.
