We invite you to join our unique workshop and create your very own beautiful petrykivka-painted picture frame!

Decorative petrykivka artwork is a joy to look at and have in your home!

You will learn how to create your own petrykivka-painted wood picture frame under the guidance of our talented Ukrainian master artist Svitlana Denisova.

Petrykivka decorative painting, as described on the UNESCO List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, is an ornamental folk art rich in symbolism.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

  • lots of fun learning a unique, traditional Ukrainian painting technique while getting to know another culture;
  • shared laughter with both old and new friends;
  • some light refreshments and yummy pastries

No experience is necessary, as you will be provided with all the tools and materials you’ll need.

LOCATION:

The workshop will be held at the Creekside Community Recreation Centre in meeting room 1. The address is 1 Athletes Way, Vancouver.
