Photo Exhibition “Protecting Freedom”
October 15 – October 30, 2026, 11:00–19:00 • Free entry
Through large format photographs, the exhibition will tell the story of Ukraine’s defenders - the experiences of soldiers, the realities of modern warfare, and the role of technology on the battlefield.
About the event
The exhibition will also highlight the cooperation established between the Latvian National Guard and the 1st “Azov” Corps of the National Guard of Ukraine, bringing together the 20th “Lubart” Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine and the 2nd Vidzeme Brigade of the Latvian National Guard.
The exhibition’s story will extend into practical support. In cooperation with the Entrepreneurs for Peace Foundation, visitors will have the opportunity to donate in support of the 20th “Lubart” Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine. The donations will help provide an unmanned ground vehicle capable of carrying out particularly dangerous battlefield tasks, including delivering essential equipment and assisting in the evacuation of wounded soldiers.
See you in the Glass Hall at the Draugu nams Gallery.
