The Art of Ukrainian Pysanka Eggs Workshop

Delve into the rich history and intricate beauty of this ancient art form with instructor Halyna Hromiak.

This introduction level class will teach you how to create traditional Ukrainian styled eggs, better known as the pysanka. Designs are drawn on a prepared egg with molten wax, which flows from a tool called a “kistka”. The egg is then dipped in a series of dyes and the pattern is revealed once the wax is removed.

Step-by-step instructions and tools will be provided, as well as insights behind the meanings of the colors and symbols featured. Participants will leave with their own ornamental pysanka that they can show off to friends and family.
