About artist
Vincent Rees has been engaged in the Ukrainian community his entire life. He performed with the Ukrainian Shumka Dancers for many years before becoming a teacher, choreographer and director. He also taught all around the world. After completing an undergrad in Ukrainian Language and Literature and a Masters in Ukrainian Folklore, he was perfectly suited to begin sharing his passion with others and started leading groups tours to Ukraine. Word caught on and Cobblestone Freeway Tours was born, taking people to connect with their homeland of Ukraine but also throughout Eastern Europe. Vincent is happy to be here with you at this inspiring world class Ukrainian festival because sharing Ukrainian culture with the world... is more important than ever!
