Finissage for two exhibitions: In ”Vit–Grå–Svart (samt rödlistade)” glass artist Anna-Lena Rudolfsson presents objects in a sort of punky Art Deco aesthetic. Rudolfsson tames the glass material and showcases the desire for decoration through unique engraving motifs. In "Möbel," three members and three guest exhibitors have been invited to freely interpret the theme of furniture in an exhibition where clay and glass take center stage.

In the solo exhibition "Nutidssediment" (Contemporary Sediments) works by artist Ylva Wilhelmina Franzén are showcased. The exhibition is a continuation of her previous exhibition "Kärnor ur antropocen" (Cores from the Anthropocene) and revolves around the idea that humanity in modern times has taken on the character of an eroding natural force, as well as the concrete technique of drilling deep into the lithosphere to collect data about the Earth's history. The artworks can be seen as a representational experiment where a future geological core archive from anthropogenic sediment of our time has been categorized.
