Organisers of activities and events that promote diversity, inclusion and accessibility

Sentralen wants to be a house where everyone feels welcome to host activities and events, and where the threshold is low for attending or being an audience member.

Through a separate rental agreement, Sentralen provides free rental of premises and technical equipment for activities and events that promote diversity, inclusion and belonging. The scheme has been named MINT.

Since the establishment of the tenancy scheme, the public has experienced diverse, inclusive and accessible audience events such as theatre, festivals, free dance, panel debates, concerts, shows, art exhibitions, professional conferences and seminars.

Do you want to organize an activity or event that will help make Sentralen an open house where everyone feels welcome and that mirrors the entire population? Do you have an idea for an event that, for example, is about gender equality, attitudes and participation? Please contact mint@sentralen.no.
