Workshops ”From the painted chest- Kuyavian cutout”

Workshops ”From the painted chest- Kuyavian cutout”

 

It's high time to decorate our houses with cutouts ....

In November, The Song and Dance Ensemble invites you for another workshops ”From the painted chest- Kuyavian cutout”.

Cutouts that appeared in our Polish folk art were influenced by Jewish culture. Colourful cutouts were not only decorating a certain place, but they had also a magical meaning. At the beginning they were made of a white paper. When in the second half of the XIX century a colourful paper and tissue papers appeared, they became exquisite, rainbow decorations. Depending on adopting forms (plant, animal, human figures, figures), they are called: stars (round, in the shape of a horn), rings, trees, dolls,”leluje”, cockerels.

On Saturday, 18th November you will have an opportunity to make your own cutouts under a watchful eye of Krystyna Zagrabska who is a folk artist. See for yourself how beautiful your house can look like when it is decorated by colourful Kuyavian motives.

Tickets: 10 PLN (you can buy in a ticket office until 15th November

 

The workshop will be graced by children from the Song and Dance Ensemble "Kujawy".

 

You are warmly welcome to visit us!
