DEAR UKRAINIANS!
A terrible enemy came to our land, which for centuries destroyed our language, traditions, rituals, songs and melodies, culture and art of our people.
There is no nation without culture, so we, dear Ukrainians, must not forget and promote our culture and art throughout the world. After all, our song, which we have preserved over the millennia, our unsurpassed hopak, our traditions and rituals have always been a moral defense of our mentality, and together with the Cossack weapons, saved our nation from genocide. It is culture that should unite us both in Ukraine and beyond, and bring hope for our victory and the prosperity of our nation.
Creative teams: "Swallows", theater art studio, club of Ukrainian seniors and all members of the integration center of Ukrainians "Malva" invite the Ukrainians of Šiauliai to unite and together create artistic activities dedicated to Ukrainian traditions and modern national holidays.
We invite all of you to take part in the creation of our celebrations, who can, who can: who is on stage, who is in the auditorium.
Our strength is in unity to join our creative business!
Rehearsal schedule: every friday at 13.00 – seniors' club; every saturday: at 11:00 a.m. – theater art studio, at 1:00 p.m. – ensemble “Swallows”
