- [Tradition & Heritage](https://www.vataha.nl/activities/tradition-heritage/) - Russia has a long-standing history of suppressing Ukrainian culture, and it ends now. With every Christmas carol we sing and every grandmother’s recipe we recreate, we are reminded that Russia will never be able to erase our traditions and our heritage.
- [Art & Performance](https://www.vataha.nl/activities/art-performance/) - Concerts, stand-up comedy, photography exhibitions, literature panels, poetry readings and movie screenings offer an alternative way of processing the pain, trauma and uncertainty cause by the war. Telling and hearing different Ukrainians’ stories helps shape new narratives and create a fuller picture of the gravity of the war’s impact throughout Europe.
- [Artist Interviews](https://www.vataha.nl/activities/interviews/) - Every artist’s journey is different. In individual interviews and requested opinion pieces with multidisciplinary Ukrainian artists, we make sure our nation’s brightest and most creative voices are heard.
