The concert hall

The concert hall is the main hall of the culture centre and is built as a kind of amphitheatre, i.e. you sit on chairs and look down on the stage, which is at floor level. The advantage is that the stage can be expanded or reduced as needed. The disadvantage can be that there is no depth and no backstage. But this can be offset by the set design and backdrop.

Next to the stage there is an artist dressing room where performers can change clothes, put on make-up or whatever they need to do before going on stage.

With approximately 258 seats, the concert hall can accommodate live music in the form of concerts in many different genres, as well as theatre performances, lectures, public meetings, conferences and the like. The necessary sound and lighting systems are of course available for these purposes.

The concert hall is also the cultural centre's cinema, Taseralik Bio, and has a cinema machine, big screen and sound system for the ultimate movie experience.

Café and conference

Café Taseralik is located in the foyer with a beautiful view of Lake Scout Lake. Here you can enjoy coffee, tea, cocoa, cakes, etc. With exciting lunch dishes you can enjoy the view of nature, both summer and winter, where there will be outdoor activities in front of the house.

Adjacent to the foyer is a large conference room with room for 100 seated guests. The room can be divided into two smaller rooms so that two different meetings or courses can take place.

Café Taseralik is leased and can therefore take on tasks such as catering for conference guests, as well as buffet and dinner events. This makes it possible to combine concerts or performances with exciting dining experiences.

There is a hot spot for a fee in the café so you can get online from your own computer or smartphone.

Repertoire

Taseralik - Cultural Centre Sisimiut, offers a wide range of experiences for all groups in the municipality. These are music experiences, theatre performances, art exhibitions, films, lectures, debates, and all with both professional and popular actors.

It is important that the offers are adapted to the different age groups. From the very young to the oldest. Of course, these offers can't be fulfilled in just one week or at a single event, so you need to think about an annual programme, divided into half-year and quarterly programmes, which in turn are divided into weekly programmes.

In other words, there must be room for narrow and broad programmes, and versatility must be ensured. Above all, the audience and other customers must feel welcome in the cultural centre so that they come again and again and fill the cultural centre with life and joy.

A multicultural house

Det er vigtigt, at lokale aktører, skabende såvel som udøvende kunstnere, får meget synlig plads i det samlede kulturprogram. Men det er ligeså vigtigt, at der kommer aktører også fra resten af landet og andre lande, norden og arktis. Der skal være plads til både amatører og professionelle.

It's also important that when we bring in outside professionals, they not only provide exciting experiences but also leave behind knowledge and skills about their art. That's why it's important that the culture centre works closely with the music school, choirs, musicians, actors and others, so that workshops and the like can be held, and so that children and young people in particular can improve their skills in the practice of art and culture, and not least so that children can gain more insight and understanding through an educational angle.


The culture house is thus a very versatile, multicultural house with a wide range of programmes for all age groups. The house is the citizens' own cultural centre, so it is important that the audience and customers feel welcome so that the house can be filled with joy of life.
