Ukrainian Egg Decorating Workshop

Creating a New World Vision From Ancient Design

(Supplies included in registration)

Considered by many to be a "sacred magical art", the creation of a talisman with specific intentions written into the life-giving egg, the Pysanky is an ancient means to celebrate the cycles and events in nature and in life. Created using motifs rooted in nature and the cycles of

life, designs are made with simple instruments (made of wood and copper) called kistkas, the humble materials of beeswax and candlelight, and intensely vibrant dyes.

Create a beautiful egg in the time-honored Ukrainian tradition of Pysanky, or create a symbolic piece of art to invoke a new world vision. This workshop will explore the art in a free form, using symbolism that tells a specific story and holds a deliberate intention. Each participant will

receive a Pysanky kit containing the basic tools and materials required for the class.

Instructor Coreen Weilminster has been making Pysanky for over 30 years.

Participants must bring an empty egg carton to transport their piece home safely.
