We were delighted to hold the opening ceremony of our art exhibition at the prestigious United Nations in Geneva—a truly inspiring and unforgettable moment. We had the great honor of welcoming Tatiana Valovaya, Director General of UN Geneva , whose presence added immense value to the event. She delivered a graceful and thoughtful speech, highlighting the power of art as a bridge between cultures and a force for unity and peace.
The ceremony also featured moving remarks by Ajkuna Thanati, President of the UNWG, and Radiona Nikova, Vice President for Activities, both of whom shared heartfelt reflections on the role of women in art and the mission of the UNWG to support education through creativity.
The event was attended by many distinguished guests, artists, and supporters of the arts. Following the formal speeches, guests enjoyed a warm and elegant cocktail reception, providing the perfect setting for conversation, connection, and celebration of this meaningful initiative.
Throughout the exhibition week, we will also feature live demonstrations of our artists’ techniques, offering visitors the chance to witness creativity in action. Please come and attend—we would love to welcome you again and share the artistic journey with you.
