\n

The situation between Russia and Ukraine has taken a dire turn. Russian forces recently entered the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, and thousands of people have already been displaced by the quickly escalating conflict. It goes without saying, but these people need our support. <\/p>\n

To this end, we\u2019d like to set aside nations and politics and uplift a few creators. We compiled the following list of Ukrainian artists to help accomplish this goal. It includes short overviews of each artist along with links to relevant profiles and channels, which you can use to support them. <\/p>\n

Please know that this list is far from exhaustive and isn\u2019t \u2014 in any way \u2014 representative of the individuals who are most deserving of support or recognition. Many, many <\/em>Ukrainian artists, philosophers, and business leaders have contributed an immeasurable amount of value to the world. And all of them equally deserve to be featured. Sadly, that is an impossible task. This list is also in no particular order and is not intended to be read as a ranking.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, this is simply our attempt to uplift individuals during these difficult times. It should not be read as anything more. <\/p>\n

There are a number of other publications and organizations that have created similar lists and articles. We encourage you to seek these out, share them across your channels, and do whatever you can to help support this community. If you\u2019re looking for more artists to support, consider reviewing these lists<\/a>. Similarly, keep an eye out for ways you can support relief efforts, like RELI3F<\/a> and UkraineDAO. <\/p>\n

And as always, we actively seek your comments and feedback.\u00a0Please let us know what we can do better.<\/p>\n
