The Hedesundavävarna Foundation owns and runs the course and camp farm Skaparbyn, which is located on the island of Ön in Dalälven outside Hedesunda in southern Gästrikland. There we run courses and camps with an artistic focus according to our special pedagogy for primarily children and young people during the longer school holidays. During the periods when we do not have our own activities, we rent out the facility to companies, authorities, institutions, associations and private individuals for all kinds of events.

Excerpt from the Hedesunda Weavers Foundation statutes

"The purpose of the Foundation, which is non-profit and not intended to benefit or support any individual, is to:

  • Promote in particular the ability of children and young people to weave and dye plants or to create in other forms - whether visual arts in general, theater, music or literature - with a view to stimulating and developing the creative abilities of children and young people."
