To pay homage to the victims of the tragic events that took place 10 years ago less than a mile from our building, and to honor all the New Yorkers who experienced that horrific day, a slideshow installation entitled September 11, 2001 and after, is running continuously in the Museum lobby through Sunday, September 18. The display consists of 50 photographs taken by Hanya Krill-Pyziur; Vasyl Lopukh also contributed images to the slideshow.

About the Museum
The Ukrainian Museum was founded in 1976 by the Ukrainian National Women's League of America as a showcase for Ukrainian culture. Since its founding, the Museum has amassed extensive collections of folk art, fine art, and archival material. It mounts several exhibitions annually; publishes accompanying bilingual catalogues; organizes courses, workshops, and other educational programs; and hosts a variety of public events. In April 2005 the Museum moved into a new, state-of-the-art facility in New York's East Village, funded entirely by the Ukrainian American community.
