Summer season is over

30 August, 2021

Lisas stuga

Like the flowers of the fireweed we are now also done blooming for this summer season.

We thank you for all the fantastic visits we have had and we humbly thank you for the respect everyone showed for each other when staying inside the museum’s walls. This summer we will be remembered as warm winds, filled with laughter and curious questions and as a summer when no distance was too far.

Of course, it is still possible to book guided tours and the easiest way to find information about it is to read more by clicking on Contact here on our website

Our last waffle Thursdays this winter

Our last waffle Thursdays this winter

Now tomorrow we will “finish” our waffle Thursdays, for this winter, with a thunderous quiz. A quiz where the questions are partly based on history and the name Brita/Birgitta recurs.

Not only that, at 10 am we will be visited by some students from the school here in Saxnäs who will show a film they have made!

Of course, the waffle iron heats up and the coffee pot is charged.

This also means that we are now taking a break even with the creative workshop which is after school hours. So tomorrow, Thursday March 30, will also be the last Thursday open for children.

Fantastic theater at EMMAS

Fantastic theater at EMMAS

Last week’s highlight was this fantastic theater that was with us in Saxnäs at EMMAS.

~ Strongest hearts have the most scars ~ The story of a woman from a roadless country who walked her own path instead of getting lost in the footsteps of others. Produced by Musikteatern and with a fantastic artistic team consisting of Harleen Kalkat and Magnus Karlsson.

We pushed the boundaries of what can be considered “comfortable seating” for everyone and anyone who made up the audience, and as we say in Sweden but if there is room for the heart, there is room for the bottom and it does when we arrange something! ♥️ These words may become Ricklundgården and EMMA’s “contribution” to Valentine’s Day. With hope for a more inclusive, accepting and inviting world!

This theater was a collaboration with Riksteatern in Vilhelmina!

Book release at Scalateatern

Book release at Scalateatern

On February 1, Ricklundgården was invited to Stockholm and @matsthepoet book release at Scalateatern. The title is ~Härlig er Jorden~ which was about how a writing process can go and about how the mountains and landscapes have changed just over a few decades.

Included in the book are several people from Kultsjödalen,@ellakariskum, @anderswesslanwestlin and his mother Gunilla Westlin and Göran Eriksson.

This evening I (Tina) was a “stand-in” for @hedewa, who also frequently appears with many stories in the book.

A nice evening and full of honor that we were three friends from Kultsjödalen who got the chance and the opportunity to talk about our home region which is so nicely described in Mat’s book.

Save the date, Tuesday, December 20!

Save the date, Tuesday, December 20!

Then it’s Open House at Ricklundgården at 16-20.

@mattias_andersson_art will invite you to Folke’s studio, mulled wine and other goodies will be available for a cheap penny (swish only) and during the evening you can participate in a quiz where we will draw a very nice prize to the person with the most right answers.

• All warmly welcome! 🕯
