Class Sign Up

Each of our classes will be held in the Tomasic Hall. Unless specified, you don't need to bring anything with you for the classes. If it is a cooking class, people have been known to bring their favorite apron for show, or for protection. The Strawberry Hill Museum will provide all materials needed for you to enjoy the class. Typically the class will include you taking your finished product home with you. So, dress comfortably, bring something to drink if you like, and plan on having a fun time. All classes are non-refundable. (unless the weather turns bad and we will call you to let you know) 

Pysanky Class - Back by popular demand! Irene Thompson is again presenting a class on the art of Pysanky, the European tradition of decorating eggs. Each student will be able to take their “work of art” home to enjoy during the Christmas holiday. 

Ukrainian Egg Decorating Class. A pysanka (Ukrainian: писанка, plural: pysanky) is a Ukrainian egg, decorated with traditional Ukrainian folk designs using a wax-resist method. The word pysanka comes from the verb pysaty, “to write”, as the designs are not painted on, but written with beeswax. Take home your creation.

Sarma - Stuffed cabbage in one form or another is present in most world cuisines but especially among Easter Europeans. It is a hearty dish that many Croatians serve every day but especially for special occasions and holidays. Recipes vary from cook to cook, but they all consist of a meat filling wrapped in cabbage and cooked over more cabbage usually in a tomato sauce for more flavor. You will have your own creation to take home and bake or freeze for another time.
