Saving the world one pysanka at a time . . . . ™ |
Wondering about the origins of this podcast? For several years, we’ve collaborated on many projects with our talented friend, Paulette MacQuarrie,
who just happens to be the host of Nash Holos Ukrainian Roots Radio. We’ve been
friends for decades!
She’s been podcasting her show Nash Holos since 2001, and for a
long time now has been encouraging us to get going on a podcast of our own on the
topic of pysanky.
Two other things got us motivated as well:
1. We want to keep current with popular social media trends such as
podcasting; and
2. There are no existing podcasts about pysanky!
After several brainstorming sessions, the Pysanka Power Podcast
was born! The first six episodes will cover the history, legends, and symbols
of these precious artifacts. On the practical side, with teaching experience
and conducting workshops since 1991, we’ve got more than enough information on tools
and techniques, hints, tips and do it yourself projects to tell you about.
The inaugural episode goes through the essentials—what supplies
are needed to get started and why they’re needed. In future episodes we’ll tell
you about everything from technique to history and symbolism, share stories, legends
and fun activities, and provide you with resources to help you explore on your
own.
Select this link to go to our website to access the Pysanka Power Podcast. We'll soon have links to
download or stream podcast episodes. As well, there will be a link to subscribe
to the podcast with your favourite podcatcher app. We’ll
also post the transcripts there for those who would like to follow along.
And don’t forget, the
first six episodes of the Pysanka Power Podcast will
be broadcast on Nash Holos Ukrainian Roots Radio, from its debut this Saturday until
Easter. Tune in Saturdays at 6pm on AM1320 CHMB or stream online at www.am1320.com,
and Wednesdays at 11am on CHLY 101.7FM in Nanaimo or online at www.chly.ca.
