A trip to Paris for the winners of the International children’s art competition ‘Golden Easel’
July 14, 2019
Lviv – Kyiv – Paris – Disneyland – the trip was long, but worth going.
When I got off the plane in Paris, I saw a lot of people with disabilities and was impressed by the conditions created for them. The cleanliness of the premises, streets in Paris and in Disneyland also surprised me. There were people from all over the world. I didn’t understand a lot, but all of them were very friendly.
Disneyland turned out to be huge. The extent and amount of entertainment in this fantastic town were unbelievable. There were beautiful fairy-tale buildings, many attractions for both children and adults on its territory. Several rides were scary even to me.
Apart from a lot of attractions, the next day, after a good night’s sleep, we had to cover distance of 17500 meters – this is 28538 steps in a day. And in Paris itself – 20784 steps; there we were able to see the architecture of the European capital: the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe and others. The great thanks to Olena Demchuk – the sponsor of the trip to Disneyland and a wonderful company of ‘Golden Easel’ finalist – Pavlo, Dmytro, Daryna, Victoriia, Sofiia and Yevhen. Everyone felt great under the care of Ms. Olena and Ms. Veronica.

Almost 1300 children, mainly from Eastern Ukraine, have visited Lviv and the Carpathians where they could try to show their creativity. It was the first trip to the west side of Dnieper for many young talents.
Owing to idea and efforts of Children’s Lviv Art Gallery, helping of famous Ukrainian artists and supporting FRESHPR, from 1st June children from all Ukrainian regions came to learn visual art from western and foreign artists. “Art Wave of Peace” was not only the largest children’s occasion in 2017, but also had all chances to be artistic event of the year, since hundreds of people from almost all regions were involved in organizing it.
Program of event included painting and clay molding workshops. Also children took part in solemn procession in Lviv, visited local Theater of Opera and Ballet, and practiced in different art discipline. They went to the Carpathians where participants could learn more about traditions and took experience from local artists.

It’s a pity, but a day before banner, where children created a composition “Our angels, be Ukrainian guardian by day and night”, was stolen. It had 40m long and located next to St. George Moore.
Now monumental painting has finished. We ask people to respect our children’s work and protect it.
On a day of Lviv and Day of St George in metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky square more than 100 children went on painting a monumental composition “Art Wave of Peace from Ukrainian and all children around the world”. Today 14 young artists have come from Pidbuzh Small Academy of Arts to Lviv. Children were supported by their mentors and director Valerii Volkov. They actively set to work on composition. The composition was going to finish at all till 28th May before the arrival of 1250 participants from all Ukrainian regions.
In St George square in Lviv participants of the International Forum of Children’s Art “Golden Easel: Footsteps of Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky” started working on composition “Art Wave of Peace from Ukrainian and all children around the world.”
More than 100 participants during the day were creating that composition with inspiration and delight. Among the members there were students and teachers from the Children’s Folk Art School, The Center of Creativity in Galicia, the “Bee” studio, Natalia Pavliuk’s studio etc. Even the rain didn’t become an obstacle to realization of creative intentions and goals.
