West Hollywood Fundraiser for Refugees from Ukraine
West Hollywood hosts a Fundraiser for Refugees from Ukraine. In addition to fundraising, the event's goal is to show solidarity with Ukraine and connect people to people during this challenging time.
The event includes a silent auction, activities for all ages, and a gala concert.
The proceeds from the event go to a non-profit organization helping refugees from Ukraine in many parts of the world, including the United States and Los Angeles in particular.
The day-long slate of free events for children includes games, entertainment zones, and masterclasses. Highlights include Aga-Boom theatre of physical comedy and circus arts, performers Alex Bistrevsky and Dmitrious, and the Los Angeles Puppet Theater on Wheels with a performance of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Kids can participate in knitting classes led by the Kids Knitwork. The children's zone also includes a basketball shootout, giant chess and connect games, hi striker, soccer darts, and more.
The gala concert in the evening include performances by opera singer and bandura player Siuzanna Iglidan and singer Mika Newton, who are both of Ukrainian descent, as well as Vasiliy Bondarchuk, who represented Ukraine in Eurovision in 2007.
