Folk Art and Handcrafts
Come see the variety of handcrafts, folk art, and cultural displays, inspired by and originating from the Carpathian Mountains and the traditions of our forebearers.
Ukrainian Ceramics
Parishioner and ELG President Daria Parrell offers a variety of styles of ceramics decorated in Ukrainian designs. She also makes flowered hair wreaths in the traditional style, available while supplies last!
Sisters of Saint Basil
Parishioners of Epiphany work with the Sisters of Saint Basil in Ukraine to bring you a variety of Carpathian style crafts, including Vyshyvanka - a specific type of embroidery you'll recognize all around you at the festival! Other items include crosses, icons, figurines, and pysanky eggs. Money raised from sales benefits the Sisters in Ukraine.
Epiphany Bookstore
Staffed by some of our most Faithful parishioners, the Epiphany Bookstore will be open. The bookstore offers some Carpathian crafts, jewelry for special religious events, and books on theology for everyone from children to adults interested in Eastern faith formation.
Herbal Crafts and Displays
Local Virginia herbalist and parishioner Elisabeth will offer herbal creations. On display she will also have pysanky - eggs decorated by the Carpathian batik method. If you are interested in future opportunities to learn the seasonal and liturgical crafts of our foremothers, please stop by!
