SUMMARY:Knowing Anders Zorn with Ingela Haaland
DESCRIPTION:Anders Zorn\, a world-famous artist from Dalarna\, left us iconic paintings that immortalize the beauty of Swedish landscapes and traditions. Did you know he also noticed that folk music was losing popularity at the turn of the last century? He therefore took action\, creating the Zorn Badge to reinvigorate Swedish folk music by recognizing and awarding accomplished folk musicians. In this lecture by instructor Ingela Haaland\, participants will learn more about Anders Zorn\, the artist\, the person\, and the innovative thinker\, and explore his artistic work\, his home province of Dalarna\, and his impact upon the folk music traditions of Sweden that flourish to this day. \nAdditional information: \n\nNo materials required.\nAdvanced registration required.

SUMMARY:The Right to Vote and Social Democracy with Alexander Fooy
DESCRIPTION:In a relatively short period between the end of the 19th century and the early-mid 20th century\, Sweden went from a state of near-absolute monarchy to a widely recognized bastion of social democracy. How did that happen? From the Garden Crisis of 1914 to the clarification of the “People’s Home welfare state ideology in 1928\, and the adoption of the modern Swedish constitution in 1974\, this lecture by Alexander Fooy will cover the development of the modern Swedish political system and how the currents driving modern Swedish politics have their roots in these now-long-ago social trends. \nAdditional information:  \n\nNo materials required.\nAdvanced registration required.

SUMMARY:Sweden’s Election is Upon Us: Who’s Running and Why? with Alexander Fooy
DESCRIPTION:Unlike the United States\, Sweden does not have a two-party system. In recent years\, eight parties have been represented in Riksdag (parliament)\, but despite this diversity\, the parties have nonetheless strategically coalesced into two blocs. These blocs are the outcomes of an increasingly polarized Sweden\, and at the last election they were only separated by three seats. This lecture by Alexander Fooy will discuss the parties represented within these blocs\, their top priorities\, and the questions most discussed ahead of the national elections in September. \nAdditional information:  \n\nNo materials required.\nAdvanced registration required.

SUMMARY:Svenska Skolan
DESCRIPTION:Svenska Skolan meets weekly on 10 Saturdays from September 12–November 21. \n\nSvenska Skolan is a Saturday morning language and culture program for students aged 7-14 that offers an opportunity for children to learn or practice Swedish in a fun and interactive environment. Instruction is tailored to meet the needs of children at all levels of Swedish. Each week\, students sing\, play\, create and have fun på svenska. \nStudents are split into small groups for focused language time based on Swedish ability and age. We offer two parallel tracks—one entirely in Swedish for those students who speak Swedish at home and one for students new to or in the process of learning Swedish. The first track is language-focused with students receiving instruction entirely in Swedish while the second is culture-based with Swedish language lessons woven as relevant to the curriculum. Svenska Skolan meets for two hours per week with students receiving extra take-home activities for practice at home. Advanced registration required.
