From the organizer:

RAZOM is a Cultural Festival that serves a purpose to share Ukrainian culture, traditions and food as well as to raise awareness about the war in Ukraine.

Guests of the event can participate in a Traditional Ukrainian Motanka Doll Workshop, enjoy live music performances, shop for fashion, food, crafts and view two unique Art Exhibitions and an information zone that gives insights into the culture and role of Ukraine in the world and devastation of war.

Educational and fun for adults and kids, this event is a great way to start the June school holidays. “By showcasing the art and culture of the Ukrainian people through the event we hope that many people can discover more about us and do more to help,” – Oleksandr Gaman, the Ambassador of Ukraine in Vietnam.

All raised donations from the event will go towards Ukrainians families in need. The entrance is free of charge.

Traditional Motanka Doll workshop
The Motanka doll making workshop is one of the most ancient handmade items in a Ukrainian household and played an important role in the everyday life of Ukrainians. Join us in this workshop and travel back in time to make a Motanka doll together and you will have an amulet that brings luck and protection.

A head wreath made of flowers and called ‘vinok’ is a traditional part of Ukrainian national attire. Take apart in the “Ukrainian Head Wreath” workshop to make a
beautiful head wreath with the flowers you choose and then make fantastic photos!

Ukrainian Bracelets
Join a workshop “Ukrainian Bracelets” where you will be able to make different bracelets in Ukrainian traditional colors. Yellow and blue symbolize fields of wheat and peaceful sky. Black and red mean sadness and love. Our wonderful volunteers will teach you how to make them while having a sweet conversation during the process! Sound great!

Ukrainian Pysanka Workshop
Pysanka – is the art of the decorated egg, from the Ukrainian verb “pysaty”- “write”. It dates back to ancient times. Easter egg, decorated with traditional Ukrainian folk designs using beeswax and dyes. But it is much more than that. The art of painting Easter eggs, pysanky, for Ukrainians comes from their heart and soul, from God. On Easter people pin on pysanka their hopes for happiness, prosperity, strength, health.
