SYJUNTA

A GROUP OF PEOPLE COMING TOGETHER TO CHAT AND SHARE CRAFT SKILLS IN A RELAXING ENVIRONMENT WITH COMFORTING FOOD.

Inspired by the Swedish concept of Syjunta, Louise, and crafter Cara Oliver, host seasonal intimate gatherings to celebrate the ebb and flow of the seasons. Based in and around the Brighton and Hove area, the gatherings offer a chance to relax and embrace a more gentle pace of life.

At each Syjunta gathering, time is taken to teach a simple, rewarding and on-trend craft. Typically working with natural materials, such as soft yarns, fresh seasonal flowers and foliage, guests will leave with something truly bespoke and personal. Food is an important and central element of each Syjunta gathering. Guests will take a break from their creative projects to sit round the table together and share some delicious home-cooked seasonal food. A percentage of every ticket sold for goes to a charity or good cause that aligns with the underlying ethos of these unique events.

“The food was beyond incredible and I adored the crafting. It was all just so magical, organic and original. Please sign me up to all the future Syjunta’s - I can’t wait to reconnect throughout the seasons.”

— Shelley Welti, 91 Magazine.

“We loved the combination of both craft and food! It was a real treat. It was lovely to have the food served on the beautiful dinnerware by local ceramicist Jo Davda too. Would we recommended your Syjunta gathering to our friends? - 100% yes!”

— Naomi & Sarah, founders and directors of Seven Seventeen.
