HÆ HÓ JIBBÍ JEY! Our June 17th Celebration is Back!

Posted on June 5, 2023June 11, 2023 by Dwight Martino

After three years of “síðasta ástandið” (the last situation) we are bringing it back and in a big way. This event is free for members and their guests. We also invite prospective and returning members to come and join the association.

We will be preparing Icelandic hotdogs, and serving flatkökur with hangikjöt and beverages. We encourage you to bring a side-dish to share.   

Throughout the years we have been privileged that our members have helped by making pönnukökur and other desserts, and we hope that tradition continues, and encourage those that can to please bring your favorite Icelandic desserts.

We will have lots of fun activities for young and old alike, including an Olsen Olsen tournament, face painting, ball games, lawn games and horses, YES, Icelandic horses!  Antje Freygang from Montaire Icelandic Horses will be visiting us with some of her Icelandic horses.

Please reach out to the board with any questions and if you would like to volunteer to help out!

Keep your eyes open for an email with the time and location. In the meanwhile here is some great music!

Mission

Our mission is to promote and celebrate our Icelandic traditions and heritage. We do this mainly through our much anticipated annual events (June 17th Independence Day Picnic, Þorrablót, Jólabazaar, Children’s Christmas Party, and Annual Meeting) but are open to other ideas.

History

The Icelandic Association of Washington, DC held its first meeting on October 9,1969. We welcome all: native Icelanders, American/Icelanders, and those who just love all things Icelandic!
