Solidarity with Ukraine: Student exhibit featured at Montefiore's Gallery of ARTFul Medicine

A year after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Elementary students got to experience a new art exhibit in solidarity with the nation at Montefiore Hutchinson Metro Center put on by other students news 12's Genie Caldwell tells us about the goal of the exhibit. Some Flowers are the national flower of Ukraine and a symbol of peace and democratic value. Well, a new exhibit here at Monte Fior is showcasing just that as students with a nonprofit studio in a school, make a powerful statement of unity. I like how they added so much detail. I like this one mostly because it makes me feel calm yet excited. The exhibit sits in the lobby of Tower One at the hospital in showcases dozens of watercolor works painted by students at PS 1 82. Staff say the gallery highlights the role of artwork and stress education. Students from P S 1 52 got to tour the exhibit today on a field trip. Staff say having students work on the exhibit has helped them understand the devastation going on in Ukraine in the wake of their ongoing war with Russia. It has been so effective and it means a lot to the students so they understand what the war is. They may not understand the details of it, but they know that they stand in solidarity with Children that are going through something hard. Organizers are hoping the paintings in this exhibit will bring peace to patients who walk through these doors. The artwork will be here until March 15th and Monte Fior Gianni Caldwell News 12.
