Art Camp Brings Home to Ukrainians
Amidst a full-scale invasion, community is everything. That's why Lincoln Literacy and the Lincoln Arts Council organized this free camp, to bring a sense of "home" back to Ukrainians in Lincoln.
Every day, 16 families gathered together in celebration of Ukrainian culture, tradition, and art. Tears were shed as the scene captured the enduring spirit of Ukraine.
