Join a free virtual AND/OR an in-person discussion with 2020 Going Viking Honoree Liv Arnesen, an event presented by Norway House (and supported by Augsburg University and Global Minnesota). Arnesen’s book tells a story of gritty determination, thrilling achievement, and perseverance in the face of near despair and daunting odds.
Arnesen will present her new book “Skiing Into the Bright Open,” detailing her solo journey to the South Pole; a solitary adventure in the bleak and beautiful bone-chilling cold of Antarctica. A moderated discussion, including Q&A session, will be led by Global Minnesota President Mark Ritchie,
Augsburg University will have access to this discussion POST event. Any professors interested in sharing this story with their students for academic purposes, should connect with Bettine Hoff Hermanson (hermansb@augsburg.edu).
