Greenland: Where Ice Is Born
North House Folk School
500 W Hwy 61
Grand Marais, MN 55604
North House Folk School hosts Lonnie Dupre for a presentation about his past and future Greenland expeditions on Friday, January 3 at 6:30 pm.
Arctic explorer Lonnie Dupre has long dreamed of going north in his own ship: to start from his hometown and supply his own journey, like explorers did a century ago. That dream will become reality this spring as he sets sail from the Grand Marais harbor on Nord Hus, bound for Greenland.
On this trip, Dupre will continue bearing witness to the effects of climate change on Greenland’s landscapes and on the lives of the Polar Inuit people who call Greenland home.
This event is part of North House’s First Friday series. At 5:30 pm there will be a Dinner on a Stick. Bring something to roast over the fire, North House will provide pointy sticks and s’mores fixings.
