The Living Lab is seeking ideas for activities, experiences, or methods to enliven Värmland for more people, according to Region Värmland officials. The ideas should focus on crafts, artisanal work, and intangible cultural heritage, with a deadline for submissions set for May 26, 2026. Specific activities or experiences proposed so far have not been disclosed, and it remains unknown how many ideas are expected or what criteria will be used for selection.
A workshop will be held at Kyrkeruds Folk High School in Årjäng in October 2026 to further develop concepts. In spring 2025, professional cultural creators, tourism professionals, and others met in Brunskog to brainstorm ideas, though the budget or funding available for implementing selected ideas has not been announced. The identities of the other 12 partners in the Culturality project beyond Region Värmland are also not specified.
