Pride Stockholm this year welcomes you with crochet and a celebration of tradition and transformation. “Ukrainian Crafts Meet Gender Issues” is a public art installation where the timeless artistry of Ukrainian craftsmanship intersects with the urgent conversations of our time—gender equality and LGBTQ+ rights. Witness recycled T-shirts, each adorned with handmade breast nipple decorations crafted by Ukrainian refugees, becoming canvases of change.

This poignant display, curated by the artist Ludmila Christeseva, invites you to explore the intertwined narratives of feminism, gender equality, and LGBTQ+ acceptance, all woven together through the delicate threads of crochet. As these T-shirts grace public spaces, they become symbols of community solidarity and catalysts for collective action towards social justice.

By joining our crochet workshops, each stitch becomes a step towards gender equity and open advocacy. Together, let's transform sunny Stockholm into a vibrant hub of creativity and social justice.
