Ukraine Independence Day Weekend, Perth


Celebrate this national event at a local level. A colourful parade of entertainers led by the Perth and District pipe band is due to depart from Balhousie Castle at noon and is set to head through the streets of the city. A mixture of dance groups, face painting, and Ukrainian food stalls will be kicking off festivities at the North Inch.

Visit the Civic Hall to see the free Ukrainian exhibition. Discover vyshyvanka, a traditional Ukrainian style of embroidery where each stitch tells a story of cultural heritage. See the Children's Global Tapestry for Peace, inspired by the powerful art of Ukrainian children who, through drawing angels during art therapy workshops, found solace and a voice amidst the trauma of war.


The Museum of Ukrainian Craft and Culture Scotland presents the richness and originality of the outstanding Ukrainian artist Maria Prymachenko.
