Our Events
Fika
Fika is a Swedish verb that roughly means "to take a coffee break."
(It also has noun usage, roughly meaning "coffee break.")
The Swedish Club holds a weekly fika open to anyone interested in Sweden or Swedish things. It is a great place to network with other people interested in Sweden. It is also a great place for students in Swedish language classes to bring their questions. These are very casual events, with a focus on practicing the Swedish language, but don't be intimidated...
we welcome speakers of all levels!
Also, don't feel like you have to be with us for the whole allotted time.
We realize people lead busy lives, so don't be afraid to show up late.
Fika will be here for you, so just come and have a good time! :)
