Ukrainian Easter eggs are an age-old tradition, but have taken on new meaning this year
A selection of different pysanky decorated by members of the Ukrainian community in Thunder Bay in April. The hollowed-out eggs were on display at the Ukrainian Catholic church in the northwestern Ontario city.
"You end up with a magical piece of art," said Cathy Paroschy-Harris, as she carefully melted away beeswax from everyone's eggs in a little toaster oven. Cathy Paroschy-Harris and Walter Warywoda, organizers of the workshop in Thunder Bay, have fond memories of creating pysanky as children. "To be able to share the richness of both the cuisine, the arts, the heritage … so people have an understanding and an appreciation of it, because I think that's what helps us all respect each other more," she said. "And pysanky is a very, very important part of Ukrainian culture."
