On November 2, 2025, the Jewish Cultural Center "Beit Grand" hosted a bright festival-competition "Your Talents, Odesa", which united creativity, youth and inspiration.
The 2nd-year students majoring in "Choreography" presented to the audience the Ukrainian folk dance "On the Night of Ivan Kupala" - a figurative and mystical production, full of national flavor, tenderness and symbolism of ancient rites. The dance was staged in the educational and scientific laboratory "Modern Art Studios", on the basis of which the "Liberty Art" dance theater of Ushynsky University, the educational and scientific institute of musical and performing arts and socio-cultural practices operates.
No less exciting was the presentation of Chinese students who performed the traditional Chinese dance "Dance with Fans". Their performance was a real highlight of the event, demonstrating the beauty and sophistication of the culture of the Celestial Empire.
Both numbers were highly appreciated by the jury and awarded the first prize, which was a true recognition of the talent, professional training and creative potential of our students.
The festival once again confirmed that Odesa is a city of talented youth, where cultures, arts and hearts are intertwined, united by the love of dance.
Congratulations to our students and their artistic director, Associate Professor Olha Mikulinska. We wish them further success.
