Classes & Events Calendar
11:00am - 1:30pm
Upstate Elevator Supply Company will be at our Downtown location on Friday, January 17. They're true pioneers in their field, crafting products that are created as mindfully and organically as possible in order to offer you the cleanest and finest beverages, gummies and more. Must be 21+ to participate.
10:00am - 12:00pm
Pysanka (plural: Pysanky) is the Ukrainian word for a colorful, decorated egg using alternating layers of beeswax and dye (similar to batik). A stylus, or Kistka, is used to draw wax lines and shapes directly onto the egg. In this class you’ll learn about the symbolism of the shapes and colors used on traditional Ukrainian eggs, and the instructor will teach you everything you need to know to decorate your own egg (or two, if time allows) - no prior experience necessary! This relaxing, creative session includes eggs and the use of all equipment, including electric and traditional wooden Kistky, beeswax, and dyes.
Susan Essex Luce lives in the South End of Burlington and has been ‘writing’ Pysanky for over 20 years. She has taught and studied German, Latin, Spanish, and Italian. Her classes and camps combine language-learning, food, crafts and cultural traditions from around the world. She believes that everyone is an artist at heart, and hopes that her passion for art (and life!) will inspire others to explore and expand their horizons.
10:00am - 12:00pm
Visit a hidden gem in the heart of Burlington to learn about the geology of our area and practice tree identification in Ethan Allen Park with Naturalist GeneO Desideraggio. This site has an interesting social and geological history, and a myriad of interesting plants and natural features.
Spaces for this walk are limited and registration is required.
5:30pm - 7:30pm
Join us to cook and enjoy two cozy comfort food classics from the humble potato--baked potato soup and loaded baked sweet potatoes!
