A compelling lecture series will be hosted by Cactus and Tryzub in partnership with Scottsdale Public Library on Thursdays in the fall of 2025. This series lends historical perspectives on legacies of prominent Ukrainian women who have shaped the nation's cultural, political, and social landscape. Each one of eight lectures spotlights a different historical figure, exploring their achievements, challenges, and lasting impact. Through storytelling and critical insight, the series aims to inspire dialogue on gender, identity, and national heritage.
