The current exhibit focuses on Ukraine’s rich history of women in political, cultural, educational and religious roles, and notable Ukrainian Canadian women who were inspired by their predecessors. We showcase a broad spectrum of women: an astrophysicist, a Sainted Queen who introduced Christianity to Ukraine, an opera diva, a French Queen and a Canadian Senator.

You can visit an online version of the full exhibit on our website https://umcmb.ca or we would be pleased to give you an in person tour.
