The Faroese Folk High SchoolThe Faroese Folk High School is the oldest folk high school on the islands, located in central Tórshavn. The profile is performing and visual arts, writing and Faroese culture and language. Excursions around the Faroes are includesd in the course.
The long autumn course has following subjects:
Performing arts, with a focus on proces work. This means, that you will work on voice, presence, physical awareness and self confidence. What you learn can be useful both if you attend to study performing arts and if you want to be better at oral exams, at giving a speech, at doing politics, and tyo have fun.
Visual arts, with a focus on basic techniques in drawing, painting, lino, ceramics and glass, as well as doing some big works together, like street art, wall paintings and installations.
Writing, we try out different forms of writing, poetry, short stories, articles, songwriting, comic strips etc. Every year, a student paper is published. The students write, illustrate and edit the paper.
Nature and Culture, we do a few longer excursions around the Faroe Islands, but also visit natural sites, artists and crafts people, and social institutions.
