We’re happy to share that Mental Bytes received funding from the Development Fund for Immigrant Issues for our project "Languages of the Heart".
The project gives people of foreign origins and Icelanders a chance to share their stories through poetry and music. It brings newcomers and Icelanders together to create, express, and listen to each other.
Thanks to the Ministry of Social Affairs and Housing for supporting this project and helping us create a space where people’s voices are truly heard.
We are exciting collaborating with Icelandic musicians María Viktoría Einarsdóttir and Sigrún Hardardóttir.
