The October meeting of the Arts Society Coventry is focused on the culture of Ukraine and is open to the public.

“This lecture tells the Ukrainian story through the shared culture which binds its proud people together. As well as tracing this country’s complicated history, we will look at Ukrainian folk culture, ranging from Cossack dancing and Hutsul “red icons” on glass, to the secret codes embedded in the country’s ancient embroidery tradition, which have exerted a surprising impact on modern painting and contemporary haute couture.”
