Yulia Kovaliv will launch a multimedia exhibition featuring footage of Ukrainians defending their country on the front lines.
Ukraine is celebrating its independence from Russia 31 years ago, but also marking six months of the war.
To mark the event, Kovaliv will also host a charity auction in Toronto to raise money for ambulances and evacuation vehicles.
