Join us in the Stockholm Archipelago from 20-27 August 2024

Participate in the first Futurecraft Together in Sweden at the beautiful Villa Orninge 🇸🇪

Dear friend,

You’re invited to join us from 20-27 August for the first Futurecraft Together in Sweden, at the beautiful Villa Orninge at the top of the island of Ornö in the Stockholm Archipelago 🇸🇪

We've held three Futurecraft gatherings so far, in Apr 2023 & 2024 at Calamansac, Cornwall in the UK, and Dec 2023 at Brave Earth in Costa Rica, with two formats: Futurecraft Residencies and Futurecraft Together. Futurecraft Together is our more co-created/participatory format– a week to explore and embody the futures we desire for...

🌍 ourselves, our community, our planet
🧘🏼‍♀️ body, mind, soul
🤖 technology, humanity, nature

Each day we'll start with (optional) meditation and yoga, then after breakfast, hold a morning circle where we'll hear what workshops/activities people are dreaming of, and invite people to offer their skills and expertise to meet the desires of the group. In our experience it works rather magically ✨

Some of the workshops that took place at the last Futurecraft Together include: Collaborative Vocal Improvisation · Synthetic Intelligence as Mystical Experience · Sacred Connections and Spiritual Ecologies · Beyond the Binaries... Identity, Power and Money · Queer Ecology & Wild Food Walk · Nature Guardianship & The Rights of Nature · 2030 Visioning and Backcasting · Witch Clown Rave Ritual · Co-created Cabaret

•⁠  ⁠The base rate is 1000 SEK/day (about $90/€85/£75). This covers food and accommodation, but doesn't include anything towards the time of the organisers. For the sustainability of Futurecraft, you're encouraged to pay more if you can.
•⁠  ⁠It's cheap and easy to get to Ornö from Stockholm (line 43 + 839 bus + public ferry).
•⁠  ⁠We cook in teams for each other.
•⁠  ⁠There's a lovely seaside sauna.

We’d love to see you there!
