Invitation to VUMA Writers Room

In the autumn of 2020 VUMA ran a writers room for people with multicultural backgrounds between the ages of 20-35 to refine their critical and journalistic writing on art, culture, media and current events.

We were joined by the head cultural journalist from Bergens Tidende, Liv Skotheim and Hanad Ali who is a journalist widely published around Bergen. The VUMA writers room produced many articles that will be published here in 2021.

VUMA will run writers rooms in 2021 as well, so please send an application with your writing background and interests!

We look forward to meeting you.
