About this Event

🕊️ Pysanky Practice for Peace: Creating for a Cause

Join us for an afternoon of art, tradition, and solidarity.

We invite you to a hands-on workshop dedicated to the beautiful craft of Pysanky—the traditional Ukrainian art of egg decorating. In this ancient practice, every wax line we "write" and every vibrant color we dip represents a prayer or a wish for a more peaceful world.

Whether you are a seasoned artist or picking up a kistka (stylus) for the very first time, your creativity helps us spread hope and harmony. Let’s make colorful memories—and a meaningful difference—together.
