The waters of Slussen and time – live music, history, future

Project Slussen

Open with free admission 6 PM to 12 AM

A whale has stranded on Södermalmstorg and becomes a temporary space for music, stillness, and movement. At Slussen you are invited to talks and conversations about the city that was, that came to be, and that never happened. About water, stability, and change. Questions, answers, coffee.
