Guinness World Record in Tranemo!

The organisation ”The Yellow House in Uddebo” does not only repair an old industrial building in the small village Uddebo in Tranemo municipality. To repair a building is not enough for those creative people. They want to arrange activities in the village and municipality to show that small places can be attractive and compete with the world. The latest event happened on May 15th. The goal was to gather a lot of people as artist, painting the same motive at the same time. The motive was the yellow house in Uddebo. The big city Peking in China has got the Guinnes World Record with 300 persons painting the same motive at the same time.

The challenge for the small village in Tranemo municipality was to beat one of the biggest cities in the world. Despite the rainy weather in the morning the 15th of May, a lot of people came to Uddebo. When the start went, 439 artists were registered, placed in the special area and allowed to start the painting. After some hours the paintings were placed on the wall of the yellow house like a great art exhibition. Many people have been able to look at all the paintings during one week. The Yellow House people are impressed and thankful of all the people that came to Uddebo and joined this great people party.

The Yellow House in Uddebo is a new interactive meeting place in Tranemo municipality. A world-class countryside with world record!
