House of Blondes
http://houseofblondes.com/

House of Blondes is an electronic quartet, whose debut album was recently acclaimed by The Quietus as “the most phenomenologically beautiful album heard in a long time. The synthesisers across the whole record sound like they’re floating in the room in front of you, as though the tendrils of their oscillations and reverberations are reaching out and stroking your face, your skin, your inner organs.” Best New Bands premiered their newest track “Are You Boys All Right?”, praising it as “a dark, ambient pulser that feels like it could be part of a soundtrack to a Wong Kar-Wai film, evoking images of a smokey night punctuated by neon lines”.

Pysanka Egg Dyeing Workshop

By
Join us as we welcome spring at our annual Pysanka egg dyeing workshop. 

Ukrainian Pysanka involves drawing on an egg with a special tool, using fire and wax, and dipping the egg in multiple dyes, building up patterns and layers.
The word pysanka is derived from the Ukrainian verb pysaty ‘to write’; we ‘write’ designs on the eggs. Nearly all Slavic peoples and those in the eastern Mediterranean area practiced this art in ancient times using beeswax and dyes to create tiny masterpieces of art but Ukrainian Easter Eggs from the more modern Christian era seem to be the ones best known. The symbols used in pysanka design are a blend of ancient pagan motifs with Christian elements.

A special tool called a kistka is used to melt the beeswax and write on the eggs. The kistka is the pen and the beeswax is the ink. Each successive color is waxed and dyed until the entire design is created on the surface of the egg. The wax is then removed, and your masterpiece is revealed!
 
Participates will receive a dozen eggs to work with, and their own Kitska and beezewax to take home for continued practice.
Kids 10yrs+ are welcome with a non-participating adult.
