What EMMAS really is?

11 May, 2022

Vi på EMMAS

Maybe you have wondered what EMMAS really is? For whom is this for? How will it work? And can you, as a general curiosity, just look in and visit?

EMMAS is the name of our art education workshop. EMMAS is also the name of our premises which is in Saxnäs, below the school and opposite the store.

EMMAS offers all primary school children in the ENTIRE VILHELMINA MUNICIPALITY a professional art pedagogical approach, ie. Art + pedagogy in harmony with other activities in the schools.

During our opening hours, anyone is welcome to visit. If our art teacher is not busy with school classes, she will be happy to show and help you who are curious to maybe try printing techniques or something else.

During the day and other times when we work, everyone is welcome to look in and no one is happier than us for spontaneous visits! There will be simpler “try-things”, some art books and other relevant reading here as well as information about what is happening in the world of art and creativity around Västerbotten.

EMMAS is simply a place for everyone who wants a little bit of art and creativity in their life!

At the time of writing, we are in the process of completing the final interior finish and we plan to inaugurate EMMAS in early June.

See you! ❤️🧡💛💚💙

Afternoon coffee

Afternoon coffee

This Thursday will be the premiere of our afternoon coffee sessions!

In addition to coffee, these times will also contain cultural elements, it will of course vary depending on the season, what else we are working on educationally or which artists work in our residence.

Keep an eye on our channels! We announce artist presentations and the like separately, but as far as possible, the idea is that these should also be on Thursdays.

Hope to see you on February 13!

Welcome to Open Studio, Thursday January 23

Welcome to Open Studio, Thursday January 23

Welcome to Open Studio, Thursday January 23  in the Annex up at Ricklundgården at 19.00!

Dutch artist Marieke van Rooy, partner of Mangano van Rooy https://www.instagram.com/mangano_vanrooy/, from Amsterdam, wants to share her artistic research on the importance of nature and the individual connection to nature in times when the climate is under pressure.

“This is a newly started research project and Marieke would like to exchange ideas with Kultsjödal residents about our contact with nature, we who live in southern Lapland, after all. The concept of nature on a personal level is closely linked to experiences from childhood, don’t you agree?”
