June 6: What holiday is today, traditions and prohibitions.
Today, June 6, several important events are celebrated in Ukraine. In particular, Journalist Day, World Transplant Day, World Tetris Day, and Open Air Cinema Day are celebrated. The memory of Venerable Visarion is also honored.
Journalist Day
Journalist Day in Ukraine was established in 1994 as a holiday for media workers. Ukrainian journalism had its own peculiarities due to political conditions, but the beginnings of Ukrainian media date back to the 17th century.
World Transplant Day
June 6 is World Transplant Day, which reminds us of the importance of organ donation and transplantation. This holiday aims to honor the memory of donors and highlight the problem of organ shortages to save lives.
World Tetris Day
June 6 also marks World Tetris Day. The game 'Tetris' was founded in 1984 and has become one of the most popular games in the world.
Open Air Cinema Day
June 6 is celebrated as Open Air Cinema Day. In 1933, the first drive-in theater was opened in the USA, where people could watch movies under the open sky. This idea was initiated by Richard Hollingshead.
Memory Day of Venerable Visarion
In the church calendar, June 6 is the Memory Day of Venerable Visarion. This saint was known for his asceticism, prayers, and miraculous properties.
During the celebration on June 6, Ukraine honors not only journalists but also donors, game lovers, cinema enthusiasts, and saints. Each of these events has its own important context and contributes to raising public awareness and education.Read also
