Finalists of "My Ukraine" Children's Art Contest Honoured in Croatia
The Ukrainian House in Zagreb hosted an award ceremony for the finalists of the international children's drawing competition ‘My Ukraine’ dedicated to the Day of Defenders of Ukraine.
This was reported by the Embassy of Ukraine in the Republic of Croatia.
The competition was organised by the Charitable Foundation ‘Ridna Stežina’ and the Greek Catholic Mission in Rijeka with the support of the Embassy of Ukraine in Croatia and Lithuania. It lasted from 1 August to 30 September 2024.
It was attended by 251 children aged 3 to 18 from Ukraine and other European countries. A total of 287 works were submitted and judged by the jury in different age categories.
‘The children's works are filled with deep meaning, you can feel the fragility of the child's soul, hope...’, the diplomatic mission shared their impressions.
The Embassy thanked Lyudmyla Sydorenko, the International Charitable Foundation ‘Ridna Stryzhyna’, the Greek Catholic Mission in Rijeka, and Bento's sponsor, Adrian Mendes, for the initiative to hold the thematic children's drawing competition.
