“Prayer Day” was celebrated for the first time in Vladivostok

Vladivostok has a new holiday - "Day of the Pryanik" (0+). The organizers intend to include this event in the event calendar of the Far Eastern capital.

The holiday was held on a grand scale in the shopping mall “Sedanka City”. From noon to evening the holiday was noisy, sang, danced. Worked master classes and gingerbread mail – painted gingerbread can be issued as a gift, and “delicious” letter – “Pryanik from Vladivostok” to send anywhere in Russia. Fillings for gingerbread are made from wild plants that are collected on the territory of Primorye. The composition includes only natural ingredients, so the shelf life of gingerbread is only 30 days. Each carrot is created by hand. Children willingly participated in the immersion performance and helped the main character Petrushka to overcome all the difficulties to come out the winner of all situations. Creative teams pleased the audience with dances, songs, bright costumes, familiar melodies. Russian folk motifs in modern clothes were presented by the fashion theater “Steps to meet”, instead of popular minimalism, grunge and oversize on the stage demonstrated folk motifs. In general, in the language of modern teenagers, it was a real cultural background. Local craftsmen shared the secrets of their achievements and talked about folk crafts. On the festive site, you could buy wood products, including printed boards for gingerbread, felt, beads, as well as toys and souvenirs. Intellectuals and amateurs paid tribute to the Easter Palette library platform, where the thematic book exhibition "Easter: Pages of the Holiday" was presented, and also became participants in the "thinking" Easter Traditions marathon.

“We make gingerbread, and we want to celebrate Carrot Day!” says the creator of “Pryanika from Vladivostok” and one of the organizers of the event Alexander Getmanov. First, we want to tell the residents of Vladivostok about our gingerbread: we make them with love, they are tasty, healthy, natural, they can and should be eaten and bought by children, to give to your friends from other cities, tourists – this is a really wonderful gastronomic souvenir that you can be proud of. Secondly, we want to popularize gingerbread in the Primorsky Territory, we want the great Russian art to live, prosper and praise Primorsky masters of gingerbread and was the pride of Primorye. Therefore, today we celebrate Carrot Day and hope that over time it will become one of the favorite holidays for residents of Primorsky Krai.
