Don a mask and straighten your wig

During the autumn break week, the City Museum will be preparing for the 300th anniversary of the birth of merchant Johan Sederholm by making accessories appropriate for the time.

How did people prepare for fancy parties in 18th century? What would have been impressive enough for the banquet halls? Visit the museum workshop space in the Falkman wing to make paper wigs and cardboard masks and learn more about the language of the beauty spot. Colouring-in sheets will be provided for the youngest visitors. The workshop is free of charge and open to all.

Falkman wing, Mon–Sun 17–23 October 2022 from 12.00 to 15.00. See you there!
