Join us for a powerful celebration of Ukrainian heritage, identity, and unity at the World Vyshyvanka Day event!

20th-anniversary celebration featuring special guests Dr. Lesia Voroniuk, founder of World Vyshyvanka Day, and Dr. Nataliya Havdyda, Director of International Cultural Projects in the USA.

Lesia Voroniuk is the visionary who transformed a student initiative into a global movement celebrated in more than 100 countries.

A vyshyvanka is more than embroidery — it is a symbol of resilience, ancestry, freedom, and the “genetic code of the nation,” as Lesia Voroniuk describes it.

All proceeds from the event will go to the event organization and sent to NGO "World Vyshyvanka Day" to preserve the traditional Ukrainian embroidered shirt (vyshyvanka) as a vital part of the spiritual and material heritage of the Ukrainian people.

Event Highlights:

Inspiring history of a global movement of World Vysyvanka Day
