FACILITATOR has supported Nadja Weiss with grant applications and to create the non-profit association that is now supported by the Torsten Söderberg Foundation to arrange and organize Gunilla Palmstierna-Weiss' extensive archive consisting of letters, sketches and texts as well as sculptures and ceramics.
Gunilla Palmstierna-Weiss (1928-2022) is one of the most established and acknowledged set and costume designers of our time who received great recognition both nationally and internationally during her professional life.
FACILITATOR supports MISSCHIEFS founder Paola Bjäringer in developing a new artist residency in the village of Collioure, southern France—a place that inspired many early 20th-century artists, including Henri Matisse and Sigrid Hjertén. Though independent, the new residency will be developed in the spirit of MISSCHIEFS.
MISSCHIEFS is a method to push for more visibility of womxn artists. By taking over empty spaces in key urban locations, MISSCHIEFS curates multidisciplinary exhibitions and public experiences as well as offering rent-free art studios to selected womxn artists.

FACILITATOR supports the development of Östangård, an international venue for music, art and performing arts in southern Sweden. Together with FACILITATOR, owners Nadja Weiss and Philippe Boix-Vives are now exploring how the place can develop in the coming years to become an important place for innovative art and culture.
The new Östangård Performing Arts & Residence will offer rooms for rental, concerts and performances, and future also artist residencies for national and international artists.
