About this Event

Have you heard of Motanka dolls? These traditional Ukrainian dolls carry deep cultural significance, often symbolising well-being, goodness, and hope. Each doll is unique, shaped by the imagination of its maker.

In this workshop, you’ll take part in a special tradition passed down through generations in Ukraine. Guided by the artist Mariia Miskova you will create your own Motanka doll to take home.

Mariia’s work is supported by the organisation Mission of Innocents, you can find out about their work and important purpose here: missionofinnocents.org

This FREE workshop is suitable for ages 10+. Children ages 10 - 11 must be accompanied by an adult, and this adult is included within the same booking (no additional ticket required).

Sign up to secure your space. A limited number of drop-in places will also be available on the day and allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

This Motanka Doll Workshop and European Communities Day was made possible thanks to #NationalLottery players
