Have you ever wondered where the tradition of using a Christmas tree as the main Christmas and New Year symbol came from? What do we know about the origin of the tradition of decorating Christmas trees during the winter holidays?
We invite everyone interested in creating New Year’s decorations to the Museum workshop guided by Hanna Tarasenko.
Moreover, you will learn more about Ukrainian traditions, their preservation, and commemoration today. Within the framework of the workshop, the curator of the exhibition and collector of Christmas tree decorations, Maryna Lukianova, will conduct a tour of the "Ukrainian Christmas tree toys: from the 19th century to the present day" exposition. The exhibition shows how Christmas decorations have changed over the centuries, reflecting the spirit of the times, social and historical events.
