    Your 80 year-old great aunt, Persis, was placing a canning jar on the top shelf of her pantry when she stepped awkwardly off the stool and twisted her leg at the hip. She felt a sharp pain in her hip and, after collapsing to the floor, found she could no longer stand.

The idea is that GODSBANEN is a place where all actors within as well as in borderline of the various performing arts, visual arts and literature get the best possible conditions for creating and developing their arts. The premises and facilities are available for performers at all levels. The art production center GODSBANEN will also serve as a meeting place for people with different approaches to the concept of culture. Although culture is at the core of the center both the business and educational sector will be active participants of the center. Therefore, GODSBANEN will largely be a transverse venue.
