Charity market with traditional Ukrainian dishes will be held at TOLOKA. All proceeds from ticket, merch and food sales will be donated to Repair Together.
Party guests will be able to support the volunteer organization in several ways: they can sign up for construction work to rebuild affected villages in Ukraine, make a donation, or support the second wave of their international campaign, The Stone, which was launched in September.
The Stone is an exhibition for which the team placed bricks of destroyed Ukrainian houses in eight European cities (Amsterdam, Prague, Paris, Warsaw, Vilnius, Kaunas, Klaipeda and Berlin) with the inscription «Imagine that this is all that is left of someone’s home». Together with the stones in different points of Europe the team has put up posters with a QR code, which should be scanned in order to get the detailed information about the activity of Repair Together and the ways of support of the suffered Ukrainians.

Repair Together, a volunteer initiative to revitalize de-occupied Ukrainian villages and towns, was launched in May of this year. The team received a lot of publicity thanks to сommunal works, during which volunteers cleaned buildings, schools, and palaces of culture destroyed by the russian military to the sets of local electronic artists and DJs.
A number of major Western media outlets wrote about the initiative, including The New York Times, Dazed, Washington Post and BBC.
