For Taras Shevchenko’s birthday, students of the Separate Structural Subdivision “Odesa Technical Professional College of ONTU” joined in the literary commemoration of the Great Kobzar “The Strength of the Nation Is in Shevchenko’s Word”. During the event, the poet’s poems were quoted, and participants shared their own reflections on his work and on the significance of Shevchenko’s word for modern Ukraine.
Sofiia Dmytroniak, Diana Iatchuk and Iryna Lukaniuk joined the all-Ukrainian flash mob “Let Us Unite Souls with the Kobzar’s Word” and took part in a poetry marathon, reciting the poet’s favourite works. The event was yet another reminder of the power of Shevchenko’s word, which inspires, unites and shapes the national consciousness of young people.
