Yes, they both do.

Lent is a period of penance and atonement done in memory of Our Lord's forty day fast in the desert (See Matthew 4:2-"And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards He was hungry...")

Ash Wednesday is the first day of Lent, the "kick-off" if you will. On this day Catholics have their foreheads marked with ashes in memory of God's creating Adam out of dust (See Genesis 3:19-"for dust thou art, and into dust thou shalt return").

Easter Sunday is the day where Christians celebrate Christ's Resurrection from the dead, and it is also the end of Lent.
