Triskel Arts Centre
Funded By

This 15 May from 12-2pm, join Viktoria Kondratieva, Cork-based Ukrainian artist, to celebrate Vyshyvanka Day at Triskel Art Centre in this FREE public event!

On 15 May, Ukrainians celebrate Vyshyvanka Day, a holiday devoted to preserving the Ukrainian folk tradition of creating richly embroidered ethnic clothing. Visitors will be guided by Viktoria in screen printing custom T-shirts in the Vyshyvanka style, inspired by the iconic embroidered patterns that honour Ukrainian heritage. After that, dive into the world of Petrykivka painting — the beautiful, colorful folk art of Ukraine! You will learn about its floral designs and symbolism, and then decorate your Vyshyvanka-style T-shirt with your own touch of Petrykivka magic. Come create, connect, and celebrate the beauty of Ukrainian traditions in a modern way.

This event is part of the Studios of Sanctuary Programme, generously supported by Rethink Ireland Resilient Cork Fund.
