Ukrainian Flag
The flag of Ukraine is a simple bi-colored light blue and yellow banner, that was officially adopted on January 28, 1992.
The flag is a symbol of the land, the Sovereignty of the country, and the hope of the nation. Hence, it is celebrated every August 23rd as a reminder of the resilience of Ukrainians in the struggle for independence.
Blue is symbolic of the calming skies above. Yellow is the color of its vast wheat fields and the feeling of joy.

The lighting system was designed and engineered by LED Smith, Inc. of West Palm Beach, Fla.
The company’s CEO, Gavin Cooper, has created lighting systems for some of the world’s best-known landmarks, including the Empire State Building.
