Production of clothes

The Smithy project

The Smithy is created in the picturesque village of Unizh near Ivano-Frankivsk which is an area for all, for whom Ukraine is not only a territory for, but also a place of, performance art.

The festival of the Ukrainian music and art Unizh first took place in summer 2008, with a few thousand people in attendance. The best representatives of Ukrainian alternative music were on stage, and the guests saw over ten performances alongside other cultural and art events.

The Smithy is a territory of forming and hardening of competitive, efficient, fair, new Ukrainian cultural elite. This place is for talented people who have a lot of ideas and projects. These people are united not by brands, parties, organizations nor business, but by aspirations to get the best results of productivity in order to create the new face of Ukraine.

The Smithy is an experimental creative platform for all, whose slogan is to “Die young for later possibilities” It is for those who aim, create and gain their vision due to their hard work, talent and intelligence. For those, who undertake the responsibility, in order to get and give, and to gain trust — they are the ones, who take the risks and who know the true cost of friendship and the value of honour.
