A festival with an odd name “The Street of Games - Games on the Street” will take place at Kyiv’s most artsy and quirky historical slope, St. Andrew’s Descent.
Adored by tourists and locals alike, it’s packed with arts and crafts amid nice restaurants, museums and galleries.
During the festival, though, you’ll get a double shot of creativity checking out some 21 projects put together by the St. Andrew’s artists and people who care about the slope’s future.
Starting with a concert of some hundred musicians on Oct. 1 at 6:30 p.m., the festival will run for three days.
Artists will wrap an old house like a candy on Oct. 2 at 12:30 p.m., fly Chinese lanterns in the shape of skyscrapers on Oct. 2 at 6 p.m. and build themselves into a wall for a couple of hours on Oct. 3. at 11 a.m. to name a few.
The festival has been organized to raise awareness of St. Andrew’s history and artistic purpose and defy the city authorities’ plans to renovate the street.
Oct.1-3, Andriyivskiy Uzviz. Free admission
