For immigrants and refugees fleeing from the Ukraine and  former Soviet Union in the wake of a raging war, the pursuit of freedom is paramount. In both Russian and Ukrainian, the word for freedom is one and the same – свобода (Svoboda).
Can one continue to create art when one’s freedom is in danger?

We will come together for a special showcase of Ukrainian and former Soviet Union artists, to highlight the crucial role of art in safeguarding freedom and liberty, and to help these artists’ pave their way to making their voices heard in a new land and a new language.
