Pysanka (Ukrainian Easter egg) Workshop / Fundraiser

April 20, 2022 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Free

Join for a community-building fundraiser centered around the tradition of making Pysanky (Ukrainian Easter eggs)! During this time, we’ll offer the following ways to participate:

– Traditional Pysanky: 2-4pm
Learn the traditional wax-resist method for decorating eggs.
– Painted Pysanky, Session 1: 2-3pm, Session 2: 3-4pm
If you can’t accommodate a 2-hour session, or if you’d prefer to work with paint, join for one of our 1-hour sessions instead.

The workshop is free to attend and all supplies are included. QR codes will be available onsite to donate to:

– Razom for Ukraine: Supporting efforts to provide humanitarian aid and medical supplies to people in Ukraine.
– Ni Wakati: In recognition of the significant barriers IBPOC communities face in accessing safety and security in war and loss of territory situations.
