Ukrainian-born director Igor Golyak and Arlekin Players Theatre of Boston have launched the powerful #Artists4Ukraine social media campaign to raise critical humanitarian funds for Ukraine through the non-profit organization Nova Ukraine.
To date, Golyak has been joined by famed Hollywood actor Mark Ruffalo, Broadway’s Danny Burstein, actress Jessica Hecht, Deaf actor John McGinty, and playwright Sarah Ruhl, as well as members of his Arlekin Acting company (all immigrants from the former Soviet Union). They have all posted heartfelt poems, monologues, songs, and messages for the people of Ukraine on social media with the hashtag #Artists4Ukraine and a donation link, urging fans and friends to help.
#Artists4Ukraine has raised over $15,000 for Nova Ukraine but there is so much more work to do.
