TORONTO – The Ukrainian Museum of Canada, Ontario Branch, is presenting a playful exhibit celebrating a unique part of Ukrainian Canadian subculture. Not all museum treasures come from the distant past. This year, the museum unpacked Mama’s and Baba’s boxes for a nostalgic look back at the 1960s and ’70s, when embroidery adorned everything from home décor and handbags to the ubiquitous A-line dress.
Museum visitors will be able to learn about Ukrainian Canadian lives in the ’60s and ’70s through a cross-generational understanding of life and culture of the Ukrainian Canadian diaspora.
