“Creation of the Worlds” is a virtual reality journey through the works of Lithuania’s greatest composer and most celebrated artist, Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis.

With the visuals based on his artwork and the music from his symphonies, you become a part of the journey through time.

Būkime Kartu invited a group of children from a care center to enjoy this virtual reality journey and they were enchanted by the entire experience.

After experiencing the works of Lithuania’s most famous composer and artist, Daughters of Lithuania LA treated the kids to a traditional Lithuanian meal of kepta duona su sūriu (fried bread with cheese), bulviniai blynai (potato pancakes), and gira (drink made from rye bread).

All Būkime Kartu events are charity activities of the Vilnius International Club

Dear Daughters of Lithuania LA,

This day reminds us of the value of kindness, connection, and everyday commitment – the things that unite us in meaningful work. Your empathy and care strengthen our community and help create a brighter future for young people in Lithuania.

Wishing you warmth, inspiration, and a truly heartfelt Valentine’s Day.
