Event Details

Immerse yourself in the art of Pysanky, an ancient Ukrainian egg decorating craft. You'll learn how to use a kitska, a stylus-like tool filled with hot beeswax, to adorn hollowed eggs with intricate designs before dipping them in vibrant dyes.

Led by artist Irina Kuzmych, the workshop will include a discussion of the history, symbolism and significance of Pysanky art to foster a deeper appreciation for Ukrainian culture and heritage.

Supplies will be provided.

Dress appropriately as dyes may stain clothing.
