To honor those in Ukraine, SoCal hosts a weekend of cultural events from Friday, Feb. 24 to Sunday, Feb. 26.
“We are trying to get culture and art to the general public in the hopes of one day establishing a Ukrainian museum in Los Angeles,” Chaikovsky said.
A highlight of the weekend, according to organizers, will be the unveiling of a sculpture commissioned by a California-based artist’s coalition titled the Global Peace Initiative. The four-foot sculpture is a smaller version of a 22-foot monument that will eventually be installed in Ukraine. In addition, throughout the weekend, Los Angeles City Hall will be lit up in blue and yellow, the colors of the Ukrainian flag.
