Conducted a Christmas drawing workshop for IDP women

Conducted a Christmas drawing workshop for IDP women - Rise of Ukraine

On the eve of Christmas, each of us wants to feel warm and believe in a miracle 🎄.

That’s why we organised an art workshop for 20 IDP women to give them a little holiday cheer and help them distract themselves 🫂

And when we started to get to know each other, it turned out that the geography of the regions of our charming girls is very diverse: Kharkiv, Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia. And now we all met here in Dnipro.

This meeting was the perfect opportunity to unload our thoughts, let go of our feelings, meet new people and try something we had never done before. It turned out that many people had never held a brush in their hands and were very nervous about it.

But in vain, under the careful guidance of our fairies @mari_art_mari and @nastya_ryabtseva, each of our guests was able to become a real artist and create their own masterpiece. And when at the end of the evening we heard “Thank you! It was incredible”, real fireworks started in our hearts 🤌🏻👀

After this meeting, each of our guests went home with their own picture, where they drew one of the main symbols of the winter holidays – a Christmas tree. And next to it, a fragile ballerina, as a symbol of femininity and tenderness 🎀🩰

Each of them has experienced the loss of their home, stopped feeling safe and ceased to be the person they were two years ago. But we are very happy that thanks to this evening they were able to feel the joy of something new 🫶🏻

All the memories of this evening were reliably captured by @suspilne, thank you very much 🎥

We give a miracle together with Rise 💙💛
