Workshop: Traditional Polish Christmas decorations

You are invited to a hands-on, festive workshop where we will learn to craft traditional Polish Christmas ornaments.

In Poland, Christmas decorations are deeply rooted in rural history—handmade to bring luck, love, and protection to the home.
Bring your children and friends, enjoy the festive company, and make your own meaningful Christmas gifts and decorations this year.

What We Are Making:

• Painted Wooden Angels: Create vibrant, folk angels with artist Anna Ryan.
• Woven Straw & String Angels: Traditionally made with rye straw, Magda will guide you using local Queensland materials to adapt this beautiful custom symbolising harvest and prosperity.
• Felt Angels: Urszula will teach you to stitch soft keepsake angels
• Folded Paper ‘Światy’: Craft traditional, intricate wafer-like balls that symbolize peace, harmony, and love for the home.

And more...

Who Is This For?

• Everyone! You do not have to be Polish to join. This is a celebration of craft, culture, and community open to all backgrounds.
• All Ages & Skill Levels: From children to grandparents, this workshop is suitable for all ages and is designed to bring generations together (parent supervision for children required). No prior crafting experience is needed!

Stay and Craft with Us All Day!

Our bar and kitchen will be open for lunch, serving polish pierogi, freshly brewed coffee and delicious Polish cakes.

Come enjoy the festive atmosphere, connect with your community, and take home a piece of living tradition to hang on your tree or gift to someone special.
