Traditional Christmas decorations are a part of a themed exhibition currently running in Podil.

To celebrate the Chrsitmas season as a family holiday full of color and traditions, the Center of Ukrainian Culture and Art in Podil chose Christmas tree decorations as their theme. The center opened an exhibit of antique toys and decor on Dec. 10 from private collections around the city, and held a number of master classes for children to pass on the craft of making Christmas fun. Apart from antique toys and decor, the exhibition sprawled on two floors features traditional folk Christmas decorations and a number of modern ones. The exhibition also features holiday-themed paintings by Natalya Kuriy-Maksymiv done in an unusual technique on glass. The exhibition will last through Jan. 14 at 19V Khoriva Street. Another master class on traditional Christmas decor making for children will take place on Dec. 19 at 18:00. The entry is free.(Photos by Ganna Bernyk)
