The UK/Ukraine Season of Culture has been on for almost a year. We started our work on the Season way back in 2019, but the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine has forced us to reimage the original Season theme 'Future Reimagined'. We have now created an even more diverse schedule of live events in the UK and provided global online access to our entire programme.
