Education and courses
We will offer practical and theoretical courses. The ambition is to start a weaving teacher training program and supply staff from various weaving industries, handweavers included, with useful knowledge. To find our more click here.
Activities and projects
We want to create a destination with different ACTIVITIES, workshops and D.I.Y., seminars and lectures, innovative activites focusing on colour, design and technology. The centre will also accommodate different DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS, collaboration with colleges, universities and a wide range of companies. This center will promote sustainability and develop new technical solutions.
International
In the future we want to explore the possibilities of cooperating with other countries. Their cultures and weaving skills can be an inspiration for future innovation.
Rydal
Rydal is situated on the banks of the river Viskan, North of the town called Kinna. Due to the well-preserved remains of an old industrial Community, Rydal is of national interest. The factory, alongside with several other buildings in the village, have been declared historical monuments. The village Community has an active team that organises activities and guided tours of the milieu. If you would like to find out some more about Rydal click here.
More weaving for the People!
We organise several Weaving Cafés at the old Spinning Mill in Rydal. These are appreciated and well visited.
Due to the ongoing pandemic we can not go through with our Weaving Café on det 3rd of December. We are hoping to be able to organize one next spring sometime. Updates will come. Until then take care and keep your distance.
Warm greetings!
