Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the study is to find out the peculiarities of conducting and assigning workshops on techniques for creating and decorating national costumes. The research methodology is based on the methods of generalisation and systematisation, the method of art historical analysis, and typological method, as well as on the principles of historicism and objectivity, which allowed the study to be carried out comprehensively. The scientific novelty is determined by the fact that for the first time in the Ukrainian scientific environment, attention has been drawn to the phenomenon of workshops on various techniques of creating and decorating traditional Ukrainian costumes as an effective tool for maintaining the traditions of national dress in the early twenty-first century, when there is a high level of interest in material and spiritual culture in society. Conclusions. The research is devoted to the study of workshops on various techniques of decorative and applied arts in the contemporary Ukrainian cultural and artistic space, the priority purpose of which is to preserve and popularise folk traditions of creating ornaments and decorating certain elements of traditional Ukrainian men's and women's costumes. Today, such workshops are designed to draw the attention of the general public to material and spiritual culture. The study, based on the analysis of workshops of various formats (within exhibition projects, scientific and popular science conferences, and forums, activities of studios and individual masters of folk art) in Ukraine, has found that these events promote archaic traditions of folk costumes and encourage the general population to study certain aspects of their creation and decoration, taking into account the regional affiliation of the costume. In this regard, it has been determined that workshops are an effective tool for raising the level of ethno-patriotism in society.
