Ceramic activity in Gränna
Recovery and community in the world of ceramics.
About the project
Emilias keramik AB is a newly started company outside Gränna that will offer courses, workshops, and sales of ceramics. The leader support will go towards setting up the premises and purchasing equipment to get the business started. An important driving force is to create a place for increased well-being, creative expression, and community. A central part of the project's purpose is to include socially disadvantaged groups who otherwise have limited opportunities to participate in creative and cultural activities.
From the application
”By creating an accessible place for ceramic craftsmanship, the business wants to contribute to increased well-being, creative expression, and community.”

The board's motivation
A young, female entrepreneurship that produces ceramic items for the county's tourists in collaboration with farm shops in the area. Additionally, and not least, a learning experience that creates meaning for an important target group both in the small workshop and in various locations in the local area. The project is shaped by the integration of social and craft skills on and around the potter's wheel clay.
