Immerse yourself in traditional Ukrainian culture! The traditional Ukrainian summer kitchen was used during the hot summer months to reduce the temperature in indoor buildings, was a gathering place for families, and was an area that sustained and preserved foods from the garden to utilize in colder months.
Join us on Saturday, June 17th, for a progressive walk-around tasting of traditional Ukrainian summer kitchen provisions prepared by Lake Life Catering and paired with Dr. Frank wines.
Ukrainian businesses and organizations will be on-site for donations, conversations, demonstrations, and inspirations. Interactive demonstrations of Pysanky, or Ukrainian Easter Egg painting, will occur with Sofika Butenko and Mary Daniszewski. 7-member Ukrainian Band, Tysk Band, from Toronto will be performing. And there will be a collaborative mural painting with Ukrainian-Buffalo artist Dianna Derhek. This mural will feature sunflowers and Poppies.
20% of ticket proceeds will be donated to World Central Kitchen to aid refugees in Ukraine.
11:00 am to 3 pm.
$45 per person.
RocMaidan is a 100% volunteer-based charitable organization from Rochester, NY. They volunteer their time to help Ukraine with humanitarian aid and provide information on ways to help war victims.

For many refugees, food is an immediate need. Chef Jose Andrés has set up his World Central Kitchen on the ground at the Ukraine-Poland border providing warm meals for the hungry.
“Nothing sends a bigger message of hope than a humble plate of food. And that’s the only thing we know how to do,” Andrés said. “America is gonna be with the people of Ukraine.”
