Vines and Threads for Ukraine Exhibition Closing
February 24, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
| $175Join us for an intimate evening of warm hospitality, vital conversation, and Ukrainian culture.
Start the evening by enjoying Ukrainian hors d’oeuvre and foods paired with the last available bottles of Artwinery’s fine sparkling wines. An exhibition of displaced Ukrainian photographer Ksenia Lisna’s evocative work sets the mood, offering a window into the beauty and perseverance of Ukrainians.
Then move to the ballroom for uplifting, interactive presentations. Marking the first anniversary of Russia’s war of aggression in Ukraine, a panel discussion will inspire deeper understanding of recent developments and honor the resolute spirit of Ukraine, as experts share firsthand experiences.
The evening finishes with a Ukrainian dessert and wine reception, featuring famous Kyivan chocolates and Ukrainian Muscat wine from the Koblevo winery in Odesa.
A silent auction, including wines that are the last of their kind in the world, will raise money for the Ukrainian Wine Charitable Foundation and Artwinery workers as they gather in a secret location to hand package evacuated wines from Bakhmut to export to the U.S., Liberty Ukraine’s Made-in-Ukraine project providing thermal clothing for soldiers defending Bakhmut, and for Ksenia Lisna to continue her creative exploration of this pivotal time in Ukraine’s history
