Tensta konsthall was founded in 1998 as a grass root initiative, partly realized thanks to a special grant for the more remote Stockholm suburbs, and partly at the occasion of Stockholm Capital of Europe that same year. Throughout the years, Tensta konsthall has made itself a name as an art space devoted to an international outreach taking place in dialogue with programs and activities with local resonance.

During Stockholm Craft Week, the textile art collective P.A.N.G visits Tensta Konsthall with the exhibition Nålsöga (Eye of the Needle). Drop-in embroidery sessions will be arranged in connection with the opening and closing receptions. Join in and create a textile work together with the artists! "We work with the softest and the strongest, the hardest and the most fragile. Thin threads and small stitches that create supporting structures. Through the eye of a needle, we invite others to see each other and ourselves in textile images and forms. What do we share, what do we carry? Our collective strength is needle and thread; everything else we discover together."

P.A.N.G organizes drop-in embroidery in conjunction with the opening and the closing finissage for the textile exhibition "Nålsöga" (The Needle's Eye). Join to create a textile piece on the theme "Peace Love & Understanding." The artists behind the exhibition will set up a table covered with sheets and some embroidery hoops. Embroider freely, chat, and help each other. Feel free to ask for a technique demonstration; there is no right or wrong.
