18.5.2023

On May 18, Vyshyvanka Day in Ukraine, teachers and students of the FNS went on an exciting trip to the picturesque town of Reshytilivka, which is famous for its hand-made carpets and embroidered shirts.

This day was filled with cultural immersion and unforgettable experiences! Our stop is the charming National Museum of Vyshyvanka, where we are transported back in time. The museum presents an impressive collection of carefully embroidered clothes, each of which tells a unique story of Ukrainian heritage and traditions. From vibrant patterns to intricate designs, each stitch represents the multifaceted cultural fabric of our beloved country.

While traveling through the museum, we were fascinated by the history of each embroidered shirt. The tour guide shared fascinating insights into the symbolism, regional variations and meaning of these embroidered masterpieces. We couldn’t help but feel a deep connection to our roots as we contemplated the beauty and craftsmanship that was on display. It was a truly captivating experience that deepened our appreciation for our cultural heritage. It was a celebration of our cultural identity, a testament to the resilience and creativity of our people. We left this town feeling inspired, empowered and grateful for the opportunity to be a part of such a living and respected tradition.

May we continue to honor and embrace our heritage, passing it on to future generations with pride and love!
