About

Discover the beauty of Petrykivka painting, a traditional Ukrainian folk art recognised by UNESCO as part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

Come and try this ancient art therapy of Ukrainian villagers – a joyful and relaxing way to bring colour and harmony into your life. You’ll be surprised by how easily you can create your own beautiful floral design! 🌺✨

This art form began in the 18th century in central Ukraine, when people started decorating their homes, furniture, and everyday items with vibrant floral patterns. Artists used natural pigments, egg tempera, and special brushes made of cat hair, feathers and reed stems.

No experience needed – all materials provided.
Everyone is welcome! 💛💙

Children under 10 must be accompanied by a responsible adult.

This event is a part of the cultural Making Bridges project supported by Keighley Town Council.
