Pysanky, a revered art form dating back to the Neolithic, involves creating intricate designs on eggs using beeswax and dyes in a layered batik method.
All participants will bring home their own beautifully decorated egg and have the skills to pass on and enjoy with their families for years to come.
This workshop is open to all skill levels, from beginners to experienced artists. All materials are provided; including eggs from my own chickens and a local farm in Farmingdale.
