In the project "The More, the Merrier – Embroidery for Diversity", visitors are invited to create a collaborative embroidery piece together with textile artist Kararina Frifarare. The names of all red-listed animal and plant species in Sweden are embroidered onto scrap fabrics, which are then sewn together into a large quilt. Together, a textile artwork is created that highlights diversity, community, nature, and humanity. Everyone is welcome to drop in and embroider—young and old, experienced crafters and beginners alike.
