SKRYNYA
On 28th and 29th of October 2022, a "SKRYNYA | Ukrainian Pop-Up Charity Market" in support of Ukraine will take place in Berlin Magazin at the Heeresbäckerei (Köpenicker Straße 16-17, 10997 Berlin). In the heart of Berlin, the young creative scene from Ukraine offers an insight into their visions of a free, European state in Europe.
"Skrynya" means a "treasure chest" in Ukrainian. Hence this weekend you will gain insight into the treasure chest of Ukraine: over 30 fashion, jewellery and home designers, along with artists, singers, DJs and initiatives from Ukraine's creative scene, who will introduce themselves to the Berlin public at the two-day festival Skrynya and showcase their skills in live master classes.
The first goal of the event is to raise funds for Ukraine: 20% of the proceeds will be given to the official fundraising organisations of Ukraine for medical and humanitarian purposes. The second goal is to spread information: we are providing guests with the opportunity to get closer to the Ukrainian creative scene and culture. We will accomplish these goals through the following program:
- A pop-up market with about 30 Ukrainian fashion, jewellery and home decorations brands;
- Flower bouquet-making workshop, bead weaving workshops, motanka workshops by Labo's World (traditional Ukrainian doll) and much more;
- All-day flower market and a kids corner;
- Exhibition of modern Ukrainian artists;
- Screening of a documentary film "Zhiva Vatra" ("The Living Fire") organised in cooperation with Ukrainian Signal, (the film follows three generations of Ukrainian Carpathian shepherds in their struggle to preserve centuries-old crafts, life, and traditions. It reflects the conflicts communities face between tradition and modernity);
- EUfo - mobile teams of the European Academy Berlin entertainingly informing guests about political participation within Europe and democracy - playfully and entertainingly;
- Live performance by Ukrainian DJs;
- Food and drinks organised by the Ukrainian restaurants and bars.
The event is made possible by the generous support of Zalando, the Berlin-based European platform for fashion and lifestyle, and the commitment of Berlin's Ukrainian community.
