Artist Talk with Thomas Dambo

Please register to attend.
Join world-renowned Danish recycle artist Thomas Dambo for a special evening of storytelling.
Dambo and his team have built more than 175 larger-than-life troll sculptures across the globe—from the Atlantic to the Indian Ocean, in forests, deserts, and unexpected places in between. What began as a street art project has grown into a global movement with thousands of followers.
At the heart of Dambo’s work is a simple but powerful message:
waste no more
. In a world overwhelmed by excess and single-use materials, he transforms discarded wood and scrap into extraordinary works of art—reminding us that what we throw away still holds beauty, value, and possibility.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn more about Dambo, his mission, and the stories behind his beloved trolls.
This event is sponsored by the Cities of Elk Horn and Kimballton, the Museum of Danish America, the Mike and Lou Howard Foundation, Shelby County State Bank, Marne Elk Horn Communications, and the Danish Windmill.
