A Kind of Refugee in NJ!
2024-05-05 13:30 - 17:00 | Ukrainian American Cultural Center of New Jersey, 60 N Jefferson Rd,, Whippany, NJ, 07981, United States
Dear Friends!
I’m writing either because you are in / near New Jersey or because I think you might know somebody who is : )
This Sunday, May 5, it is my great pleasure to present my book A Kind of Refugee: The Story of an American Who Refused to Leave Ukraine at the Ukrainian American Cultural Center in Whippany.
The event is organized by my dear friend Larissa Popel (nee Oprysko) and her Plast Kurin Chortopolokhy. I’ll be joined by brilliant literary translator Hanna Leliv. See attached poster for details.
It would be delightful to see you there!
This tribute to Ukraine’s valiant spirit in the face of russia’s invasion would not be complete without helping our Ukrainian defenders** do their admirable work of protecting *all of us* from russia’s ruthless war. To that end, we’ll be raffling off a T-shirt signed by some of Ukraine’s most famous battalions (carried from Ukraine by yours truly).
You can participate in the raffle from afar by sending your donation to me via Paypal: larissa.babij@gmail.com
For every $10, you get one chance to win the shirt. Bigger donation = more chances to win.
The drawing will be on May 5.
Please spread the word about the event and the raffle to your friends and communities!
Слава Україні!
Warm wishes,
Larissa
**All proceeds from the raffle will go to two Ukraine-based grassroots organizations building drones (Hero of Ukraine) and outfitting military service members (Peacekeeping Raccoons).

Prymachenko Paint, Learn, and Sip
2024-04-07 14:00 - 18:00 | Ukrainian American Cultural Center of New Jersey, 60 N Jefferson Rd,, Whippany, NJ, 07981, United States
Create your own Prymachenko masterwork while learning about the iconic Ukrainian painter!
Maria Prymachenko was a self-taught, naive folk artist who worked in paintings, embroidery, and ceramics. She was born in Bolotnia, Kyiv Oblast to a peasant family in 1909. She was disabled by polio in childhood, and largely bedridden causing her to lean into Ukrainian folk arts. Maria Prymachenko was inspired by folklore beasts and Polissya style art, intertwined with imagery from her expansive imagination. Maria Prymachenko’s paintings were dually inspired by the political struggles and wartime trauma she experienced.
Dr. Natalka Pavlovsky will walk us through an exploration of the works and life of Maria Prymachenko, and guide participants through painting a replica of one Prymachenko’s works. Supplies, wine, and hors d’oeuvres will be provided.
Natalka Pavlovsky Weismantel is a first-generation Ukrainian-American whose creative life has orbited the twin lights of art and music. She has previously collaborated with the Ukrainian History and Education Center on the Illustrated Carol Project, which centered on a set of her paintings exploring the texts and imagery of Ukrainian folk carols. Since the 2022 invasion of Ukraine, she has found herself painting almost exclusively on Ukrainian themes. An educational Jersey Girl, Dr. Pavlovsky graduated from Rutgers University, then completed her graduate work at Princeton University, earning her Ph.D. in Musicology. She is Professor of Music at Rowan College South Jersey, where she has taught since 2005. In addition to her lifelong passion for painting, Natalka loves to spend time in the kitchen, or outdoors (preferably in a kayak, on a hiking trail, or in water). She and her husband have one adult son.

Admission: $65 (Supplies, wine, hors d’oeuvres, and sweets will be provided.)

This is a metaphorical story about the tragic and mysterious death of the most powerful poet of 1960’s, human right activist, Hero of Ukraine Vasyl Stus and his struggle with the Soviet system.

Donating today! $30 Can Save a LIFE!
2023-09-29 - 2023-10-08 | The Hoverlia Social Club, 60 N Jefferson Rd,, Whippany, NJ, 07981, United States
Please help save a life by donating to this project so that we can purchase tourniquets and send them to Ukraine.
Please support our effort to collect funds for CAT tourniquets. It is a special belt with a bar that you turn around to tighten the tourniquet around the arm or leg to stop the bleeding. A tourniquet is used when there is severe trauma damaging the major blood vessels. It is a simple device that saves the lives of many civilians (children, men, and women) and soldiers in Ukraine. They end up losing their legs or arms but the tourniquet saves their lives and they can still see their loved ones. Please donate! $30 is the price of saving somebody’s life. The lives of soldiers on the poster were saved because of a tourniquet.
