Ukrainian Museums and Cultural Sites Damaged in Massive Russian Attack

In the early hours of Sunday, May 24, 2026, Russia launched a massive attack on Kyiv and its surrounding region, firing 90 missiles and 600 drones. The strike killed four people and injured about 100, while damaging civilian infrastructure including supermarkets, universities, and cultural sites. Among the hardest-hit institutions were the National Art Museum of Ukraine (NAMU) and the Ukrainian National Chernobyl Museum, both recently renovated. The Ukrainian National Chernobyl Museum was "effectively destroyed," with its historic building and 1,350-piece collection sustaining significant damage, though crews rescued about 40 percent of the collection. NAMU's 130-year-old building also suffered critical blows, though its collection of over 40,000 artworks remained safe. Other damaged sites include the Zhytnii Market, Hinaus Gallery, Ukrainian House exhibition hall, Taras Shevchenko Institute of Literature, and two opera houses.

Multimedia arts project wins Sycamore Gap tree commission after public vote

A community arts charity, Helix Arts, and George King Architects have won a public vote to create 'The People's Tree', a multimedia artwork using preserved wood from the illegally felled Sycamore Gap tree in Northumberland. The National Trust commission, announced in September 2025, will transform the tree into a 'living archive' featuring participatory storytelling, a national sound archive, seed pods for digital recordings, a soundscape from growth rings, and a sound sculpture near the original site. The project is expected to begin public engagement in summer 2026 and be completed by autumn 2027.
