Program Description

Event Details

The art of decorating eggs is a centuries-old Ukrainian tradition. Traditional patterns and symbols are applied to the egg using wax. The egg is then dipped into dye, covering all but the waxed areas. Egg decoration is deeply rooted in Ukrainian identity and remains a traditional ritual in Ukraine and among Ukrainian diaspora communities worldwide. Join us for a presentation about this beautiful tradition and a live demonstration. Presented by Olga Liskiwskyi, Ukrainian American Archives & Museum.
