At the Parliament of Ukraine is hosted an exhibition of children's art works from the USA, with the support of MP Maria Mezentzeva and the Charity Fund "Mriy". That is the art of sincerity, friendship and peace between the American and Ukrainian people through the eyes of AMERICAN schoolchildren. In this way, children from small towns in the USA express solidarity with the challenges that Ukraine is experiencing today.
This collection is called "Side by Side with Ukraine" and contains about 100 drawings created by American children aged 7-15 - students of Fuqua School and their families, as well as participants of the Ukrainian festival Kids for Peace: Farmville Ukraine Day (state Virginia) to express the sincere support of Ukraine from the American people. It is extremely important for these children to be heard in their desire to support Ukraine.
Cifers Foundation expresses its sincere thankfulness to Maria, as well as to Juanita Giles, Emily Grabiec, Chance Reynolds, Audrey Sullivan, Cainan Townsend, Robert Russa Moton Museum, Longwood Center for the Visual Arts, Virginia Children's Book Festival, as well as to all young artists of this country.
Note that this action is a reaction to the exhibition in the USA "My Ukraine", which was created by UKRAINIAN refugee children (ages 5-14) and includes more than 300 works of art. The drawings are evidence of the children's deep understanding and feeling of the difficult times of Ukraine, as well as sincere hopes for a quick victory, peace and revival of Ukraine. From June to August 2022, this exhibition was presented at the London Center for the Visual Arts (Farmville, Virginia, USA). From September 2022, part of the exhibition is currently presented at the largest airport in Washington, Dallas, where it popularizes the ideas of a free world through the prism of Ukrainian children's drawings.
