1.-31. House of Psalms
In connection with the anniversary year, Taarnborg initiates the project House of Psalms, which stretches to 2014, which is the 250 year anniversary for the death of psalm poet Brorson. House of Psalms consists of 12 smaller publications, where known Danes like Jens Smærup Sørensen, Ulla Terkelsen, Jan Lindhardt etc. pick a psalm. Each psalm results in a publication, in which the author describes, what the chosen psalm means to them. In 2010 the first three books are released and in April-May and October-November Taarnborg will be the location for two exhibitions with art work of e. g. Kirsten Klein and Per Bach-Jensen.
