Bay Street Theater
1 Long Wharf
Sag Harbor, NY
The Concert For Ukraine is a Humanitarian Relief Benefit celebrating the music, arts, and culture of Ukraine.
All proceeds support the International Rescue Committee.
Dr. Taras Filenko, noted pianist and author, will present a performance examining Ukrainian national identity through a musical lens.
Ukrainian culture is currently under threat. In response, Dr. Filenko will explain how this is not a new occurrence but the continuation of a historical cycle of suppression and resilience. With examples from Ukrainian composers of the 19th and 20th centuries, Dr. Filenko will demonstrate the vitality and distinctiveness of Ukrainian culture, with a prayer (or with hope) for its future.
Admission is a minimum $20 donation to support the efforts of the International Rescue Committee, though guests are encouraged to pay what they can.
A raffle will be held for a chance to win two Mainstage Subscriptions to Bay Street Theater’s upcoming 2022 season.
