School’s out – postcards from Swedish design schools part V

Here’s a late continuation of our series postcards from the graduation exhibitions at Swedish design schools, spring 2016. Today we’re visiting Friends Of Handicraft at Djurgården in Stockholm.

FoH was founded on the initiative of Sophie Adlersparre in 1874. Its founding aims were to enhance Swedish textile handicraft. Since then, the association has taken the lead in a number of important developments such as female entrepreneurship and emancipation, innovatory textile design and advanced technical handicraft.
