42 How? Management A group of residents from the villages of Salling approached an artistic organisation looking for new ways to encourage community engagement and local development. Together, they designed an artistic project around the tradition of chair production. A series of workshops were organised to test and develop the project. The workshops included local crafts for children and events where professional carpenters transferred their skills and knowledge to people. The local and regional authorities supported and communicated about the project. Community visits to local archives and to current and former factories were organised to discover the history of the furniture industry in Salling. The artistic organisation Grasslands devised the project. It was executed with a local working group and a board composed of citizens, artists, fundraisers, curators and volunteers. Artist Lene Noer manages the project. The Business and Development Department of Skive Municipality oversees the project. Professional Carpenters, woodworkers and local furniture factories are key partners. International artists, designers and architects redesign and upcycle the chairs. Museums and cultural organisations host exhibitions and events (The Wood Museum, Horsens Industrial Museum,
