A Manhattan pop-up art gallery is at the heart of an effort to help Ukrainians in need affected by the Russian invasion.
"In Ukraine, simultaneously everything is normal, and nothing is normal," Ross said."As of Monday, there were 12 million people in Ukraine without power, that's nearly a third of the people in the country, and it's going to be a long brutal winter out there," Sonya Gallery co-director Dylan Siegel said.
Running this gallery aligns with Siegel's passion for philanthropy, something he inherited from his late father, the beloved movie critic for Eyewitness News, Joel Siegel. "He was always proudest of having met Martin Luther King," Siegel said. "The a man whose actions responded to the time he was living through and I felt the need to do the same here."
Buying art at the gallery or supporting Sunflower Network is a way New Yorkers can contribute as well. "People in Ukraine when they know thousand of people on the other side of the world care about them, they feel a little bit less alone," Ross said.
