This Friday we invite you to our fundraiser organized for the victims of the war in Ukraine. Not only will the ticket proceeds of this evening be collected, we also want to ask you, the visitors, to bring as many resources such as clothing, food and medication to the club for those who currently need it most. With this action, we want to contribute by doing what they normally do best, enjoying an evening of music.
We also want to ask you to reflect on the incredible pleasure and privilege that tasting culture can bring, which is currently impossible for the Ukrainian population. Ampere has hosted many Ukrainian artists and employees in recent years, for example, last week Woo York, a duo from Kiev, was planned to perform but unfortunately never made it. Also Nastia, with whom we have close contact, had to flee to Poland with her daughter and leave everything behind. The owner of Closer Club sleeps every night in a bomb shelter from the Second World War while his city is being bombed and air alarms keep them awake. It’s also important to think about our Russian colleagues and artists who are arrested for demonstrating or their phones are checked on the street for messages they send to the outside world, and put behind bars.
Together with you, Ampere is there this Friday for Ukraine and for freedom.
The following list of relief goods (sorted and described) are very welcome:
– medication
– clothing
– Batteries and power packs
– food with a long expiry date
– thermal blankets and sleeping bags
– hygienic products such as soaps, toothpaste, etc.
– sanitary towels
– matches and lighters
