Weekend Craft Workshop
Intercultural Museum
Open craft workshop at Hasansens Factory every Saturday!
Saturdays 12:00–15:00
Hasansens Factory
In 2025 and 2026, the museum at Grønland will be transformed into a factory, where we will develop and produce charpai sleds – a hybrid between a Pakistani daybed and a Norwegian ski sled – together with the artist Sayed Sattar Hasan. Welcome to the factory!
Permanent exhibition
Intercultural Museum, Tøyenbekken 5
Intercultural Museum, Tøyenbekken 5
Under the alter ego Hasansen – inspired by Fridtjof Nansen – the artist Sayed Sattar Hasan will lead production at Hasansens Factory throughout 2026. The goal is to develop the ultimate new charpai sled for mass production. Can we create a new Norwegian cultural heritage icon inspired by a Pakistani daybed?
Throughout the year, the public is invited to take part in all phases of production – from product development and material production to design and final assembly. Trees will be cut, rope will be made, weaving, designing, dyeing, woodturning and much more.

The project is supported by Sparebankstiftelsen and Oslo kommune, and is part of Sparebankstiftelsen’s initiative Håndverksløftet.
