Friends and relatives of the artist, representatives of the city authorities and admirers of the poet’s work were present at the opening of Hrytska Chubay Street.

“It is a special day for our family. I suspect that my father, if he had seen this event, would have laughed ironically. Nevertheless, Ukrainians must remember their poets and artists, which is why the streets carry their name. Someone will pass by here, read the name of the street and maybe be interested in who it is, be inspired by it.”– said Taras Chubai, son of a poet, musician, leader of the group “Crying of Jeremiah”.
