Join a traditional Ukrainian egg decorating workshop fundraiser! Come discover (or rediscover) the Ukrainian art and tradition of making Pysanky.

A pysanka (plural: pysanky) is a Ukrainian Easter egg, decorated using beeswax and dyes. The art of pysanka dates back to ancient times, when eggs were decorated in the spring as a symbol of the rebirth of the earth. In Ukraine, Easter egg decorating is an important art form that dates back centuries. For many families, creating pysanky is an important cultural ritual that brings them together each Easter.

You don’t need to be Ukrainian or to have any artistic talent or skills to join!

All proceeds will be donated to Help us Help and Second Front Toronto.

To make the event as accessible as possible we are offering three donation amounts, so please choose whichever amount you would like to donate $30, $45, or $60.

The ticket includes:

- 2 eggs and everything needed to decorate your eggs (beeswax, dyes, wax dotting tool, instructions).

- A long lasting memory (or a nostalgic throwback).
