Nordic Easter Crafts 2026

Join us for a festive morning of Nordic Easter crafts and traditions! This event is open to all ages (and egg-painting skill levels) and will invite you to explore a variety of Scandinavian traditions to celebrate one of the region’s most beloved holidays. 

Activities will include…

  • Making påskris (Swedish Easter trees), twigs embellished with colorful ribbons and feathers, that symbolize the end of the cold season and the beginning of spring
  • Dressing up as Easter witches (påskkärringar/påskhäxor) a tradition where children (or children at heart) dress up as witches and exchange drawings and cards for treats
  • Creating yellow candles, which decorate Scandinavian homes during the season 

Bring your creativity, your friends, and maybe a smock or two—get ready to make some crafts to take home and relish in the påskestemning (a Norwegian word to describe the festive Easter atmosphere)!

Ages: Recommended for ages 6 and up (younger kids welcome with adult help)

Space is limited, so reserve your spot early!

Saturday, April 4th | 10am – 12pm | $20pp; $10 for members | Tickets
