Learn about traditional Swedish textile arts, sewing, blacksmithing and woodworking as taught and practiced at Sätergläntan Institute of Crafts in Dalarna, Sweden which will celebrate 100 years of course offerings in 2023. What began as a weaving and boarding school has now become a contemporary meeting place where handcraft knowledge is shared with students from around the world.
