# Event Details - **Event Name**: Saumum saman Ísland / Let's sew Iceland together - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 10 Apr, 2026 at 10:00 am – Fri, 10 Apr, 2026 at 05:00 pm (+00:00) - **Event Description**: Verið velkomin á Sjóminjasafnið í Reykjavík dagana 10.-12. apríl kl. 10-17. Þar býðst að taka þátt í að sauma saman samfélagslegt bútasaumsteppi með listakonunni Christalena Hughmanick og Íslenska bútasaumsfélaginu 🪡 Undanfarna mánuði hafa íbúar Reykjavíkur saumað búta eftir eigin hönnun á vinnustofum í bókasöfnum víðsvegar um borgina úr endurnýttum rúmteppum. Á meðan við saumum saman búta af efni, spinnum við einnig samtöl og sögur um nærliggjandi hverfi okkar. Hvernig líður okkur? Hvaða breytingar viljum við sjá í umhverfi okkar? Þessi þriggja daga viðburður er hannaður í anda hefðbundinna „quilting bee“ samkoma, þar sem margir koma saman til að vinna að handverksverkefni hratt í félagslegu umhverfi. Þann 10.-12. apríl verða bútarnir saumaðir saman í stórt teppi sem verður sýnt á Sumardeginum fyrsta, 23. apríl, á Árbæjarsafni. Almenningur er velkominn að koma og fræðast um bútasaumsaðferðina og hitta fólk sem hefur lagt sitt af mörkum — einn saum í einu. Boðið verður upp á kaffi, te og kökur. Verkefnið er styrkt af Þróunarsjóði innflytjendamála. // We invite you to join local artist Christalena Hughmanick and Íslenska Bútasaumsfélagið (The Icelandic Quilting Society) at the Reykjavík Maritime Museum as they publicly construct a collective community quilt on 10-12 April at 10:00-17:00 🪡 Over the past few months, Reykjavik residents have been sewing quilt blocks of their own design at local library workshops across the city. They were made with recycled bed covers. As we stitch pieces of cloth, we also piece together conversations and stories about our own neighborhoods. How do we feel? What would we like to see change around us? This 3-day event is designed in the style of a traditional quilting bee, where many people come together to complete craft work quickly in a social manner. Here, the blocks will be sewn together to create a large quilt-top to be exhibited at the Árbær Open Air Museum First Day of Summer celebration on April 23. The public is invited to come learn about the quilt-making process and meet the people that have contributed, one stitched connection at a time. Coffee, tea and cake will be served. The project received a grant from the Development Fund for Immigrant Affairs. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/reykjav%C3%ADk/saumum-saman-Ísland-lets-sew-iceland-together/200029880477400 - **Event Categories**: workshops, art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 51 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: http://facebook.com/200029880477400?utm_source=AllEvents.in&utm_medium=event-discovery-platform&utm_campaign=reykjav%C3%ADk-events ## Event venue details - **city**: Reykjavík - **state**: RE - **country**: Iceland - **location**: Grandagarður 8, 101 Reykjavík, Iceland - **lat**: 64.15318 - **long**: -21.94894 - **full address**: Grandagarður 8, 101 Reykjavík, Iceland, Grandagarður 8, 101 Reykjavíkurborg, Ísland, Reykjavík, Iceland ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 2 - **organizer**: Sjóminjasafnið í Reykjavík / Reykjavík Maritime Museum (https://allevents.in/org/sjóminjasafnið-í-reykjavík-reykjavík-maritime-museum/2465515) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/6f074e4e9907baa0eca6eb7c8fdd252cb0a2397c644cf0cd3cc91cd2dcab3893-rimg-w1200-h628-dcffffff-gmir?v=1774948799 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/717019462c07ac88d1c98a0c6458d897661ee83c6b62c90d23e51f6e06515ecc-rimg-w300-h300-dcffffff-gmir?v=1774948800 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Fri, 10 Apr, 2026 at 10:00 am (+00:00) - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Grandagarður 8, 101 Reykjavík, Iceland, Grandagarður 8, 101 Reykjavíkurborg, Ísland, Reykjavík, Iceland - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Sjóminjasafnið í Reykjavík / Reykjavík Maritime Museum - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** workshops, art - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Saumum saman Ísland / Let's sew Iceland together ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Saumum saman Ísland / Let's sew Iceland together", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/6f074e4e9907baa0eca6eb7c8fdd252cb0a2397c644cf0cd3cc91cd2dcab3893-rimg-w1200-h628-dcffffff-gmir?v=1774948799", "startDate": "2026-04-10T10:00:00+00:00", "endDate": "2026-04-10T17:00:00+00:00", "url": "https://allevents.in/reykjav%C3%ADk/saumum-saman-Ísland-lets-sew-iceland-together/200029880477400", "eventStatus": "https://schema.org/EventScheduled", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Grandagarður 8, 101 Reykjavík, Iceland", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "Grandagarður 8, 101 Reykjavíkurborg, Ísland", "addressLocality": "Reykjavík", "addressRegion": "RE", "addressCountry": "IS" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "64.15318", "longitude": "-21.94894" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Verið velkomin á Sjóminjasafnið í Reykjavík dagana 10.-12. apríl kl. 10-17.
