#GivingTuesday Fundraiser for UCMF 2022

Thanksgiving is the perfect time to give thanks and support your favorite projects and we would like to invite you to support the in-person return of the Ukrainian Contemporary Music Festival!

This #GivingTuesday, we are raising funds to make this the best year yet. Your donation will help us:

- rent the beautiful Merkin Hall, Kaufman Music Center, UCMF's new permanent home

- bring six artists from Ukraine to perform these incredible works, including several of the composers and folk music specialists from Kyiv

- pay NYC's best contemporary musicians fair and competitive wages, as outlined by the Local 802 Musician's Union

The theme of the 2022 Ukrainian Contemporary Music Festival is Landscape. Our three concerts will journey through the ancient Ukrainian landscape, mythologies of nature and centuries of agrarian life, to the modern city.

From the forest to the fields to the urban jungle, explore Ukraine’s diverse landscapes as we contemplate the role of music in our planet's past, present and future.
