UKRANIAN FOLK ART  - PYSANKY DECORATED EGGS

Learn how to make colorful Pysanky Eggs, Saturday, March 10, 1:00 – 4:00pm in the Cribari Art Room.  Cost: $25.  Pysanky are Ukrainian eggs created by a wax resist (batik) method of writing with beeswax on raw eggs, dipping them into a light-colored dye, writing some more, dipping them into a darker dye, etc., and then removing all the wax at the end.  The dye colors are more intense than typical egg dyes, and they are toxic so this event is for adults and teenagers.  Ellen Anderson and Ciel Duke will provide a brief description/demonstration and all the materials you need to make one to three eggs.  See images on websites, such as and the designs you draw can be as simple or complex as you like. http://www.learnpysanky.com/
