During saturday night May 10th, Stenkrossen (host of ABC’s Vi odlar!) was the subject of vandalism. Smashed windows, destroyed equipment amongst the kitchen and offices made its mark on Stenkrossen as a whole.

As a reply to the unfortunate events of this weekend, Stenkrossen is now arranging a manifestation this thursday – at Stenkrossen, for Stenkrossen.

Stenkrossen is a place that represents empowerment, influence, candidness, inclusion, sustainability, culture, innovation amongst other things, and works towards raising children and young people’s self-reliance and creativity,
