Färgfabriken invites all cultural practitioners at Lövholmen to take part in a joint manifestation, highlighting the importance of the Lövholmen area as a cultural dynamo for Stockholm!


We want to showcase the variety in forms of cultural expressions hosted by this environment, by bringing them together in a group exhibition at Färgfabriken. About sixty cultural practitioners of all kinds, working within or in conjunction to the Lövholmen area, will participate during Manifestation Lövholmen, August 20–30, 2020.

The aim of this initiative is to highlight Lövholmen as a cultural hub in Stockholm. We want to – in the light of today’s exhaustive transformation of the site – emphasize the old industrial area’s history of more than 25 years of being an essential production site for culture. A long-term goal is to influence the planning and exploitation of the neighbourhood, so that cultural, historical and social values wont be disregarded. By making more people observant on the values at hand, and by coming together as a group, we may strengthen the possibilities to effectuate change. 

We are collectively arranging this manifestation to demonstrate the importance of Lövholmen as a cultural platform in Stockholm.

Färgfabriken is located within the remains of an old industrial area, known as Lövholmen. This area is also being host to a large number of practitioners engaged in various creative activities. 

Färgfabriken has since its founding in 1995 been working actively with the place where we operate. Read more about our ongoing Lövholmen-project here.
