About
The gingerbread house, or pepparkakshus, is a cherished Swedish tradition, widely crafted during Advent as part of the Christmas celebration. Expressed through various forms and decorations, this activity brings families together to create magical houses, share stories, and forge lasting memories. It embodies the spirit of togetherness while celebrating the joy of the winter holidays and the promise of a new beginning.
Each year, Swedish museums honor this national creative tradition through exhibitions and competitions, including those hosted by ArkDes in Stockholm.
How to Join from Around the World
Over the next two weeks, we invite you to take photos from your window and send them to artten@artten.se with the subject line: Pepparkakshus for Peace. These images will be crafted into a powerful visual presentation, forming an integral part of the pepparkaksinstallation.
