Porohy #3 (2026)

July 2026

As Ukraine continues its struggle for survival, Ukrainians across the world are searching for an answer to one essential question: how can they remain themselves while living far from home? This is the central theme of the new issue of Porohy. We explore the experiences of children preserving their Ukrainian identity in forced displacement, offer a fresh perspective on the legacy of Maria Prymachenko, and present a conversation with world-renowned pianist Lubomyr Melnyk about music as the voice of the Ukrainian soul. We also examine historical memory as a cornerstone of Ukrainian sovereignty and tell the story of Alina Tsentrakevych, who continues to teach children art even under the sound of air raid sirens.
