 r Women
DESCRIPTION:An illustrated lecture exploring William Kurelek's Ukrainian Pi
 oneer Women series\, a landmark set of paintings commissioned in 1965 for

 ive Director and CEO of the Ukrainian Museum of Canada\, will walk through

  how Kurelek approached the work artistically\, and what these paintings r
 eveal about how Ukrainian Canadians remembered and understood their own hi

  communities choose to remember their past\, whose stories get told\, and 
 how art shapes cultural identity. No registration needed. Members enter fr
 ee\; non-members pay seven dollars at the door.
