Loom & band gate for squeamish hands
Part of Capellagården's summer course program is aimed at children who want to take a creative course together with an adult security person. A security person can be a parent, mother/grandparent or other important adult in the child's life.
The course is aimed at both children and adults. The child's process is in focus and the adult participates in the course on the child's terms. The courses run over two days from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. with common breaks for coffee and lunch. Lunch, light refreshments and materials are included in the course fee. What we create, we get to take home with us, of course. Below you can take part in the various courses, read more about the course content and the recommended age for each course.
You register yourself and the child via the form. We have rolling admissions and apply the principle on a first-come, first-served basis. Each course has room for 10 children and 10 adults. Accommodation at Capellagården cannot be booked for these courses.

Course fee: SEK 2,600 for a child and an adult. Recommended age of the child is 8 to 16 years. In case of cancellation due to obstacles or illness, a refund is made with 50% of the course fee.
The course is an introduction to the various weaving techniques. During the course we will go through and test different weaving techniques and create useful objects on smaller tools. We weave ribbons on ribbon gates and scarves on children's looms. Two creative days, together in the craft.
