T. Y. Pata Petrykivka Children's Art School
In 1958, the T. Y. Pata Petrykivka Children’s Art School was founded. For many years, the first teachers of Petrykivka painting were Fedir Panko and Vasyl Sokolenko — students of Tetyana Pata.
While working at the Petrykivka Painting Factory at the same time, these masters trained the next generation of Petrykivka artists. Later, their own students Valentyna Panko and Mariya Pikush began teaching at the school. Mariya Pikush has served as the school’s director since 1995.
