Ukrainian art focus for new Museum exhibition

A new exhibition will share the art, thoughts and words of Ukrainians who have settled in the district over the past year.

One year on from the start of the war, in War.Art.Hope they speak about their experiences and how they use art to sustain themselves and bring hope to others.

It showcases the work of three Ukrainian artists - Nadia, Natalia and Luda - and features a series of three emotional short films. Alongside films of Nadia and Natalia, the third tells the story of the Brickman's, a West Berkshire family who host a young couple, Max and Katya, through the Homes for Ukraine scheme.

The exhibition will run at the West Berkshire Museum in Newbury from Wednesday 22 February until Sunday 26 March.
