Program from 13.00:
Vinjestoga - in use for 200 years
In 2024 it will be 200 years since Olav Plassen and his family moved into Vinjestoga. We will celebrate this with a guided tour of Vinjestoga by Aasmund Nordstoga, followed by cake and coffee at the Vinje Center.
To tell a story with a needle and thread...
Can embroidery as a craft tradition be combined with New Norwegian literature? And can the story of Storegut be told in new ways? Yes!
Vinje Handverkslag, in collaboration with Vinje Center, will inform about the embroidery project Vinjerevla this day. The word 'revle' comes from the Norse word 'refill', and indicates a long narrow strip of cloth. From June 2024 it will be possible for visitors to participate in embroidering the 11.5 meter long reef based on the poetry cycle "Storegut" by Aasmund Olavsson Vinje.
We walk in a group from the parking lot outside the Vinje Center up to Vinjestoga.
Welcome to a celebration of A.O. Vinje's life and poetry!
