Behind the Scenes of 2021 Ukrainian Heritage Calendar -Anastasiya Belka’s Story

Anastasiya is featured on July`s page of the 2021 Ukrainian Heritage calendar. This is her story:

I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be a part of this amazing project!  This experience gave me a taste of home and a sense of something tenderly close to my heart.  When I was wearing the antique Ukrainian clothes I got this euphoric feeling of “Yes, Ukraine, this is me! And all of us together are Ukraine!”

This project revealed to me many new aspects of our Ukrainian heritage and broadened my knowledge of traditional clothing of Ukraine.   There’s more to Ukrainian clothes than just sharavary!  The regions of Ukraine are diverse and colorful.  And so are we Ukrainians, we are born and live in different places but we are all united by this priceless treasure – our heritage.
