Discover the fascinating history behind this beautiful and enduring Easter custom and view remarkable historical examples from the BHC’s museum collection!Participants will receive a set of six naturally dyed eggs (dyed with onion skins) and will be given step-by-step instructions on how to "scratch" their designs into the egg's surface. These beautifully crafted eggs are theirs to take home!
