If the news from home feels heavy… if you’re struggling to collect yourself, need a reset, or simply want to breathe and switch off for a while – come join us 31 July at 19:00, for Motanka Therapy.
This is a warm, calming community meeting where we create a motanka – a traditional Ukrainian folk doll that carries deep cultural meaning and often becomes a small personal anchor in difficult times. Many people feel lighter even after the first session.
What is a motanka?
A motanka is a Ukrainian amulet doll made by wrapping fabric – traditionally without needles or scissors. It symbolizes:
- protection and wellbeing
- a connection between generations
- Ukrainian identity and home
Motankas traditionally have no face, and their clothing elements carry symbolism – earth, abundance, and a link to the sky.
