Young people from outpost communities attended the Fest DRIVE youth festival in Orzhytsia.

The third wave of the national project Shoulder to Shoulder: Cohesive Communities brought together the Orzhytsia community from Poltava region, the Savynska community from Kharkiv region, and the Kushuhum community from Zaporizhia region in partnership.

Cultural and educational exchange is extremely important for improving the moral and emotional state of people from frontline territories. Orzhitsa’s “Fest DRIVE” was a great success among guests and local residents.

The Orzhitsa Youth Council warmly welcomed new friends from Kushuhum and Savintsy, filled them with a festive mood, and the music show gave them many unforgettable emotions.

In the cozy cultural space of the local public library, under the guidance of an art teacher, young people learned to paint eco-bags themselves, creating real masterpieces. Enchanting live music completed the incredible atmosphere of the youth festival.

The communities still have many opportunities ahead of them to prove that shoulder to shoulder, no difficulties are insurmountable.
