Fish markets for the general public

Why not a fish market, just like a vegetable market and a farmers market? Food, history, culture March 25 at 17.

Iceland is known for great fish and good fishing grounds, but to some extent
due to the fact that it is not customary in this country for the public to be able to buy fresh fish
the quay or at the fish market. Although many have shown the idea of
fish market interest, it has not been followed up in practice so far
to. It now looks like the movement is getting to grips with the issue both in Reykjavík
and beyond, and that it is not proposed to wait for visitors and pedestrians to
approach fresh fish in this lively and fun way.

Þóra Valsdóttir, food scientist at Matís ohf and Brynhildur
Pálsdóttir, food designer at the Iceland Academy of the Arts, presents interesting things
a summary of the potential of fish markets in Iceland at the company's meeting Matur saga
culture, Thursday 25 March at 17.00 in the premises of the Reykjavík Academy,
Hringbraut 121, 4th floor.

The meeting is open to everyone and admission is free.

Prior to the meeting, ie. from 16.30-17.00 there will be an annual general meeting
of the company held according to the previously announced agenda.
