Originating in Ukraine and practiced throughout Eastern Europe, Pysanky are rich in symbolism, tradition, and storytelling.In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn the traditional process of creating a Pysanka using a special wax-writing tool, beeswax, and multiple layers of vibrant dyes. As wax is applied and colors are added one layer at a time, complex patterns gradually emerge, revealing a finished design that is both meaningful and unique. Whether you're new to Pysanky or returning to the craft, you'll be guided step-by-step through the process while exploring traditional symbols, color meanings, and design techniques. No artistic experience is necessary.
