Culture on the Frontline of Solidarity

Celebrating Ukrainian and Belarusian culture in Copenhagen

Today Ukrainians are fighting for their freedom and to protect global human rights values. Meanwhile, many Belarusians are trying to topple the authoritarian regime in their country. These struggles, albeit different in nature, emphasize the importance of finding common ground through sharing culture and artistic expression.

Through the lens of music, we want to draw attention to the importance of united efforts to achieve a future full of creative freedoms for all. So, we invited young, gifted musicians from Ukraine, Belarus, and Poland to showcase the importance of the cultural front in uniting people to combat injustice and oppression.

So, join us for an evening of a celebration of Ukrainian and Belarusian culture in the heart of Copenhagen. The event has been organized by the Ukrainian-Danish Youth House and the Danish-Belarusian Association Talaka. This fundraiser evening features talented musicians from both countries and special guests from Belarus.

After the event, there will be a reception, where you will get a chance to learn more about the Ukrainian and Belarusian diasporas in Denmark and the work for the Ukrainian-Danish Youth House and Talaka.

Featured musicians:

• Margarita Levchuk (soprano) - Belarus
• Natalia Gordeyeva (violin), Julia Zhukova (piano) - Ukraine
• Dominik Wizjan (piano) - Poland

When: June 10, 19:00-21:00
Where: KoncertKirken, Blågårds Plads 6A, Copenhagen.
