Kosa Kolektiv

Kosa Kolektiv Kosa Kolektiv was started by a group of friends in Toronto with Ukr roots,to explore Slavic folklore.

Kosa Kolektiv was started in 2010 by several women in and around Toronto that were interested in revitalizing peasant folklore in an urban context by singing songs, sewing, cooking, planting, crafting, putting on workshops and sharing ideas over tea and good food. The word kosa means braid in Ukrainian and is a symbol of youth, vitality, strength and tradition. In Ukrainian folklore, young women traditionally wore long braids or kosy before marriage. We also chose kosa as our name because we like the imagery of cultural fusion, the braiding of old and new. We enjoy discovering new ways to share age-old values and wisdom with people, and are passionate about meeting and connecting with new people through community activities such as crafting, singing, and cooking.
