In Eastern Europe, the tradition of creating wax resist dyed eggs for Spring Equinox has ancient roots.
This craft – known as pysanky in Ukrainian (the most popular variation) and hímestojás in Hungarian are formative rituals for Alex Eninsche, the leader of our egg-writing workshop.

She has spent the last decade immersed in the architecture and design community in Minneapolis and creates tasty, seasonal (in both ingredient and tradition) Magyar treats for her business, Tulipán Hungarian Bakery, which is an extension of her broader interest in Eastern European folk art and customs.
