Colourful ''spider'' hanging from the ceiling ....

“Brewery B.” Cultural Center invites children and adults to participate in the Ethno Competition for the most beautiful Kuyavian Spider. The competition is addressed to individuals- children, young people and adults as well as to groups such as families, art sections, country housewives' clubs, etc.

Folk spiders are traditional decorations hanging from the ceiling, in the middle of the room during the Christmas season. Spiders were the symbol of fertility, abundance and happiness in the new year. The name spider referred to court chandeliers. In the old days, spiders were made of natural resources like straw, grain, peas, beans. People also used tissue papers, crewel, ribbons, threads and blown eggs. Spiders took on various forms and shapes.Several types of spider have evolved on Kujawy: a chandelier spider, a spider called “carrousel”, a crystal spider, a shield spider. Nowadays, folk artists making spiders can use the whole range of colourful tissue papers and papers.

Kuyavian, colorful spider can be a beautiful and original decoration made with our own hands in any interior, especially during Christmas.
