“Christmas Star” Celebration at the VMU Ukrainian Centre

On December 13, a warm and joyful family celebration, “Christmas Star,” took place at the Vytautas Magnus University (VMU) Ukrainian Centre. The event brought together the center’s children, parents, friends, and partners, creating a festive atmosphere filled with laughter, conversations, and shared moments.

Throughout the day, guests strolled through a cozy Christmas craft fair, where they discovered unique, lovingly handmade gifts. The youngest visitors were especially delighted: a magician, playful entertainment, and interactive zones kept them engaged and smiling.

The community was also visited and greeted by the First Lady of Lithuania, Diana Nausėdienė, and the Ambassador of Ukraine to Lithuania, Olha Nikitchenko. The highlight of the day was a festive concert, during which talented groups from across Lithuania filled the hall with music, emotion, and the Christmas spirit—a heartwarming reminder of community, hope, and unity.

This event marked the final activity of the project “Nazustrich,” supported by the Kazickas Family Foundation.
