The public will be invited to the Pysanky workshop on March 18th to learn how to decorate eggs using traditional Ukrainian techniques.
Using the “batik” technique, artists can practice decorating eggs using wax and colored plant dyes while learning the meaning of Easter.
Registration starts at $25 for adults and is free for children. The Pysanky Workshop will be held from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm at St. Michael’s Ukrainian Catholic Church, 715 W. Vanover Rd.
