Holidays in Russia with the Museum of Russian Icons
Wednesday, Dec. 7, 6:30-7:30pm
From the reverent Orthodox feast on Christmas Eve, to secular Soviet New Year celebrations, Russia is the place to be during the holidays! Merriments include religious ceremonies, children’s parties and recitals, masquerades, caroling, and spectacular decorations. Using images from the Museum of Russian’s Icons collection, the presentation will examine Orthodox images of the Nativity from art historical and theological standpoints, and how they compare with those of western Christianity. We will also explore the history of the Christmas (or Yolka) tree, the origins of Saint Nicholas, and distinctly Russian characters like Grandfather Frost and the Snow Maiden. Registration required; space is limited for this in-library program.
