Today’s spotlight shines on the Ukrainian Canadian Congress – PEI Branch. 💙💛

Ukraine, located in Eastern Europe, is a country rich in history, culture, music, dance, traditional embroidery, and strong community values. Ukrainian culture carries stories of resilience, hope, and togetherness that continue to inspire people around the world.

The Ukrainian community on the island began growing in 2021, and in 2023, the Ukrainian Canadian Congress – PEI Branch was officially established to help preserve and celebrate Ukrainian culture while contributing to the multicultural spirit of Prince Edward Island.

This summer, they will once again share their culture, and community spirit with all of us at DiverseCity in Charlottetown. We can’t wait to see the stage come alive with the colours, music, and heart of Ukraine.
