About LUMA Kultur

A cultural ecosystem from Stockholm — creating the conditions where people, ideas and creativity can flourish.

Luma · Lume

The name Luma carries the meaning of light, world and human connection.

Our Heritage of Light

In Stockholm, the historic Luma factory became a symbol of innovation and accessibility — the belief that light should not belong to a few, but become part of everyday life.

Why LUMA Exists

Luma Kultur exists because we believe every person carries the ability to create. Creativity is not only about producing art. It is about creating ideas, relationships, communities and possibilities. When people are given trust, support and opportunities to grow, they become more capable of shaping their own lives and contributing to the world around them. Culture is the space where this growth becomes possible.

People Behind LUMA

Luma is built by people who believe that culture can create connection, learning and meaningful change. Our team combines experience from culture, art, project development, community building and creative production.

How We Work

Our work is guided by openness, artistic freedom, respect and responsibility. We believe cultural spaces should welcome different perspectives, encourage experimentation and create opportunities for voices that are often unheard. Transparency and trust are central to everything we build.
