26062 UKRAINIAN PYSANKA (EASTER EGG) WORKSHOP

This event is no longer on sale.

Friday March 13

12:00 PM  –  4:00 PM

This workshop will teach you how to make Ukrainian Easter eggs – Pysankas, which are full of symbolism and color. The Pysanka is an ancient art form to celebrate the cycle of rebirth and events in nature/life. The designs are made with a simple instrument (made of wood and copper) called a kistka; the simple materials of beeswax and candlelight; and intensely vibrant dyes. This three-hour workshop will explore the art in free-form, using symbolism that tells a specific story and has meaning.  In addition to the registration fee, participants must purchase a $25 Pysanka Egg Decorating Kit from the instructor.
