Photo exhibit “United For Ukraine” opens at Hamilton City Hall

Hamiltonians will have an opportunity to see what life is like amid the war in Ukraine through a photo exhibit opening at city hall on Tuesday.

The pictures will feature recent content from the front lines as well as scenes of how residents in the war-torn country’s municipalities are coping with living among crushed buildings and burnt-out vehicles.

Exhibit organizer and managing partner at the Cotton Factory Rob Zeidler says the photos were first put together and curated from a gallery located in Tallinn, Estonia and brought to Canada by a staffer from the Odesa Photo Days Festival.

Zeidler hopes the showcase, which runs for two weeks until June 28, will help get people donating to the cause and help Ukrainians struggling from the conflict.

The community is being invited to bring a black ribbon to Bayfront Park between sunrise and sunset to hang on Latvia’s Centennial oak tree.
