Poland

We travel to the Warsaw and Krakow areas
of Poland in an episode where we explore the
culture, traditions, food, and passions of the
Polish people.
We feature master crafters who provide
demonstrations and workshops in traditional
Polish folk dolls, learn the art of paper cutting,
make traditional folk pottery, watch a blacksmith
bend beautiful steel, and participate in a
workshop of traditional stained glass making.
We travel to a local village where the entire
community participates in painting designs
as artwork on their homes, then we visit deep
inside the salt mines of Wieliczka where we see
an entire chapel carved out of salt. Our cast
crafts the perfect dance step with some Polish
folk dancing and crafts the perfect pierogi as
we enjoy a hands on cooking lesson.
The theme for this episode is
crafting folkart based on a resilient heritage.
