“Some of the paintings were not presented because we have already sold them. We usually carry out “silent” auctions. The price of the ATO soldiers’ paintings begins from 400 UAH, some paintings were sold for 10 thousand hryvnias. The collected money will help to continue the rehabilitation project,” the initiators said.

“Nobody is eager to go to rehabilitation centers, as everyone wants to avoid psychologists questioning. However, the atmosphere of Creative Kriivka project is amazing. Not only ex-militaries participate this rehabilitation, but also those who continue to serve in ​​the ATO area. The men, who passed Ilovaysk and Debalcevo, made dumplings and drew pictures. You should have been there to see it. Such a project values its efforts,the Major of the 92nd separate mechanized brigade, Theodore Shevchenko, shared his impressions.
