LEGO Workshop at Holmestrand Libraries

Holmestrand Libraries invite visitors to a creative LEGO building session. A large selection of LEGO bricks will be available, giving visitors the opportunity to build and create freely.

The activity is suitable for children and anyone who enjoys building with LEGO. Creations cannot be taken home, as the LEGO bricks will be reused for future activities.

The youth club runs a café during the event, serving waffles and coffee.

The event is organised in cooperation with Holmestrand Libraries and the Holmestrand and Hof volunteer centres.

Afternoon Tea – julespesial

During the Christmas season, guests are invited to enjoy a festive afternoon tea in the restaurant.

The menu includes sandwiches, scones and cakes inspired by the flavours of Christmas. Tea from Palais des Thés is served, and a separate wine menu is available for guests who would like to enjoy sparkling wine.

The experience is suited to a relaxed Christmas gathering with friends or family.

Verdiløse Menn

Verdiløse menn is a musical written by Christopher Nielsen, based on the songs and lyrics of his brother Joachim Nielsen.

The story follows Goggen, who is alone at home and looking for company. His old friends have found jobs or partners, while Kleggen is still available. When Kleggen arrives with a six-pack and Knugern in tow, the story takes a new turn.

Throughout the production, Joachim Nielsen’s music is woven into stories about friendship, love, substance abuse, social exclusion and loss. The songs are performed by three musicians from Jokke’s former band.

The cast includes Jan Sælid, Gard B. Eidsvold, Kim Sørensen, Marte Engebrigtsen and Per Egil Aske.

The music is performed by Valentourettes, featuring Petter Baarli, Peter Pogo and Runar “Kula” Johannessen.

The production is directed and designed by Anders T. Andersen.
