On January 6th, 2024, the Ukrainian Studies Society will host its first Ukrainian Christmas Eve Traditions supper since Covid. The evening will take the audience through the colourful and meaningful traditions that surround celebrating Christ’s birth, from the sighting of the first star by the youngest child, setting an extra place at the table for ancestors and unexpected guests, lighting the candle, 12 meatless dishes in honour of the animals in the manger and carollers bringing greetings in song to the household.
