Dnipro is the final destination of the all-Ukrainian tour of the exposition of original artworks by Ukrainian illustrators on the topic of the European Union’s assistance to Ukraine and Ukrainians in the face of Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine. On January 30, 2023, it will open in Zelenyi Hai Park. Before Dnipro, the artworks were exhibited in Kyiv, Lviv, Rivne, Khmelnytskyi, Uzhhorod, and Odesa.
The exposition is part of the all-Ukrainian communication campaign “Together we are Europe”, which the EU launched in August. The campaign aims to inform the widest audience of Ukrainians about the comprehensive EU support, solidarity and assistance, which European partners have consistently provided to Ukraine from the very beginning of a full-scale Russian invasion, and which is constantly increasing.
A series of drawings created by nine Ukrainian illustrators presents a wide range of assistance that Ukraine and Ukrainians receive – both within the country and in the EU, where over 8 million of Ukrainians escaping the war currently live.
The exposition shows the extent of the assistance of the European Union, its Member States and Financial Institutions – “Team Europe” -, who quickly switched their decision-making mechanisms regarding financial, humanitarian and military aid to Ukraine to a “wartime mode”. Starting from February 2022, Team Europe has provided assistance to Ukraine in the total amount of almost EUR 49 billion – including 11.5 billion military assistance via the European Peace Facility and by Member States directly.
“Dnipro is the easternmost city of our exhibition. A frontline city, withstanding Russian terrorism, a city that just recently had to face another war crime against civilians. We are honoured to see our exhibition there and we hope that it will bring a bit of joy and hope to Dnipro’s residents“, – said Ambassador Matti Maasikas, Head of the EU Delegation to Ukraine.
The exposition opens in partnership with the Dnipro City Council and will last until February 12, 2023.
