01 NYK, the beginning.



        In 2022, we launched KLUB22, a temporary venue in the former cafeteria of Aarhus' old county hospital. This space was transformed into a vibrant club environment, hosting events that challenged conventional nightlife norms by emphasizing representation, inclusion, and safety. KLUB22 became known for its eclectic programming, featuring genres like drum and bass, dancehall, and afrobeat, and for creating an atmosphere where all attendees felt welcome.​

Legacy and Impact, beyond the temporary.
Although KLUB22 was a temporary project, its impact on Aarhus' cultural landscape was significant. By repurposing an unused space into a lively cultural venue, NYK demonstrated the potential of community-driven initiatives to revitalize urban areas and foster artistic innovation. The success of KLUB22 has inspired ongoing conversations about the importance of inclusive spaces in the arts and continues to influence new projects within the city.​

Continuing the Mission with a new foundation
NYK remains active in promoting cultural engagement and inclusivity in Aarhus. Through various events and collaborations, the collective continues to support emerging artists and provide platforms for underrepresented voices in the arts community.

Raise The Bar
With this web series we wanted to unfold the process of creating KLUB22, to showcase how bottom-up community based work can invite and include upcoming cultural creators into established cultural organizations, and how to better take part in changing the current policies of how we create cultural influence in our city.

This series is produced and directed by Synkron and is made possible with funding from Aarhus municipality.


E01: WTF Are We Doing?



In the first episode, we follow two of the KLUB22 project managers Daniel and Camilla in the very early stages of developing the platform. Trying to figure out “WTF are we doing?”


E02: Behind The Scenes


In this second episode, we take a look “Behind the scenes” as we follow Mai around the venue. Mai has been the third part in the administration of KLUB22.


E03: The Faces Of KLUB22


This episode brings out few perspectives from some of our amazing members of KLUB22. Without these people (and so many more) the dream would never have become a reality.
