Presentation and Live Concert • Cultural Forces of Ukraine

Join us for an evening with the Cultural Forces of Ukraine, the cultural arm of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This special event will feature a presentation on the role of cultural diplomacy in bolstering Ukrainian morale during the ongoing war, followed by a live concert showcasing the talents of world-class Ukrainian musicians who have become active-duty soldiers.

These artists, who have participated in some of the fiercest battles of the war, will share their experiences and perform a repertoire that includes Ukrainian and world classics, popular hits, and traditional tunes featuring the bandura, a traditional Ukrainian string instrument. Don’t miss this opportunity to witness the resilience and spirit of Ukraine through its cultural ambassadors.
