Goose Egg Decorated with Sunflowers

Pysanky are Ukrainian Style Decorated Eggs.   Worked on whole, raw chicken eggs using wax-resist batik methods with vibrant dyes, they are unique and beautiful.

Please join us at Arch Reactor at one (or more) of our Seven Workshops in March to learn this beautiful craft.   Please see the Calendar for dates and times.   Classes begin on Tuesday, March 14 and will conclude on Tuesday, March 28.   Reserve your spot here.      You are welcome to register for multiple sessions.   

As this craft uses hot beeswax melted over candle flames this is not a craft for small, excitable children, though many children have successfully decorated beautiful eggs.   Any young child decorating will need to be closely supervised and assisted by a parent, please.

About Our Hackerspace

Arch Reactor was founded in 2009 by a group of friends who liked technology, programming, making, and pizza. Now St. Louis' largest hackerspace, Arch Reactor's growing membership continues to bring new skills, projects, equipment, and people to one place.

For a deeper understanding of what we're about, you should check out our explanation of hackerspaces, perhaps read about one of our members' projects, or (best of all) come meet us in person at the next open event!
