The U.S. Embassy in Ukraine of the U.S. Department of State announces an open competition for Ukrainian organizations and individuals to submit applications to carry out a program to support Ukrainian performing arts by fostering Ukrainian - American collaborations and/or presenting American content in theatrical plays, musical, dance and literature performances. Russia's war against Ukraine targets not only its territory and people but also Ukraine's very identity as a nation. Culture protects and nurtures that identity, particularly the performing arts which gather Ukrainians together even during wartime. To support Ukrainian performing arts in these challenging times of Russian aggression against Ukraine the U.S. Embassy Kyiv Public Diplomacy Section (PDS) invites Ukrainian registered non-profit, non-governmental organizations and individual artists to apply for funding to support theatrical, music, dance or literary performances that (a) present American content to Ukrainian audiences with or without American participation, (b) create new art through American-Ukrainian collaboration between organizations or individuals, or (c)establish programs supporting American mentoring for Ukrainian artists. The grant from the U.S. Embassy will cover costs associated with developing such projects and with concluding presentation or series of presentations of created works.
