The European Union invites you to the opening of “Together We are Europe” exhibition

On August 21, at 1 pm, a mobile exhibition “Together We are Europe” has kicked off near the Arch of Freedom of the Ukrainian People in Kyiv. The opening ceremony was attended by the officials of the EU Delegation in Ukraine, the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration of Ukraine, and ambassadors of the EU Member States. Nine Ukrainian female illustrators presented a series of drawings reflecting their view of many manifestations of the war, and also assistance and empathy, the actions of the European Union being the embodiment of them for many Ukrainians.

This exhibition essentially testifies to the breadth of the assistance provided by our European neighbors, who promptly shifted the decision making mechanism regarding financial, humanitarian and military aid to work in the time of war. Even the EU projects operating in Ukraine have directed their financing to the wartime needs. At the same time, the important area of culture was not overlooked, particularly art that communicates emotions and events in real-time mode. Therefore, it is no surprise that this exhibition marks the launch of the “Together We are Europe” communication campaign.

Due to the security situation, the exhibition will be closed to visitors from August, 22 to August, 25. But already from August, 26 its work will be resumed, and it will remain open until 21 September, 2022.

The exhibition is a part of the EU-funded “Together We are Europe” national communication campaign. Its goal is to inform the widest possible audience of Ukrainians about the all-around support, solidarity and assistance of the EU that has already been provided to Ukraine at the time of the war and that will continue further.
