A Ukrainian-born artist is set to host an art event in the heart of Norwich.
Yuliia Vasylenko, a Ukrainian refugee, is holding her Shades of Hope art event at The Crypt Gallery, Norwich School on April 5 and 6.
Ms Vasylenko found refuge in Norwich in 2022 after escaping from the turmoil of war-torn Ukraine.
Her work portrays the human struggle with adversity using themes of war, resilience, and hope.

Ms Vasylenko said: "My art mirrors my emotions, thoughts, and dreams.
"It invites you to see the world through my eyes—a world where even in darkness, there's a flicker of hope."
Of all the profits made at the event, 75pc will be dedicated to supporting Ukrainian charities.
