A single tail feather from the Firebird can light up an entire room. Capturing and imprisoning its magical power is a common theme throughout Russian folklore and folk art. This unique cultural program is designed for adults, teens, and families with children 6 and older. After an illustrated storytelling presentation there will be an optional hands-on workshop where participants can paint an authentic Russian wooden firebird whistle. Throughout the workshop there will be traditional Russian music along with a demonstration of a few steps from a traditional Russian "Firebird Dance."</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">There is a materials fee of $13 or $15 for anyone participating in the whistle painting workshop.
