Fryshuset, Youth organization in Stockholm, Sweden
Fryshuset is a youth center in Stockholm with multiple buildings offering education, sports facilities, music studios, and social support services. The facility combines regular schooling with specialized activities like basketball and skateboarding.
The center was founded in 1984 when Anders Carlberg converted an old cold storage building on Stockholm's outskirts into a basketball hall and youth center. This transformation became the starting point for the organization's current diverse offerings.
Young people from different communities gather at Fryshuset to work together on music, sports, and dialogue projects. These spaces allow them to learn from each other and build new skills together.
Access to programs and activities is open to young people interested in both school education and specialized courses. It helps to explore available projects beforehand to find the best fit for your interests.
The center runs specialized programs like Exit, which helps people leave extremist groups, and Passus, which supports those transitioning out of criminal organizations. These innovative approaches show how the place goes beyond typical youth services.
