The school teacher's farm – generations in collaboration
Think about what storage space can do…
About the project
Tofterydsrevyn engages villagers aged 3-80+ but has lacked a space that can function as the revue's wardrobe and storage. Now, Tofteryds community association will furnish the ”school teachers” barn" as storage space. The venue is part of the church stables that Tofteryds local heritage association is responsible for and operates a museum in. This allows both associations to collaborate on the venue and benefit from it to preserve the village for future generations.
From the application
”Tofterydsrevyn can, with the implementation of the project, continue this intergenerational project that characterizes the revue”

The board's motivation
The restoration of the historically unique schoolteacher's barn with attached church stables is a good example of local cross-border cooperation that demonstrates well-functioning collaboration between local parties that affects people of all ages. With the project, cultural life is strengthened and historical environments are cared for and filled with important activities. The measure also broadens the range of interesting cultural-historical attractions.
