Preserving People’s Stories
Explore Our Archives
Alongside our permanent artefact collection and research library, we care for more than 2,500 archival documents that illuminate the history of Ukrainian life in Canada.
Our archives preserve the experiences of Ukrainian immigrants and settlers, as well as the records of community organizations, cultural institutions, and events that shaped collective life across the country—including our own museum.
Do you have materials you’d like to contribute to this growing record of Ukrainian Canadian experience? We welcome archival donations that help expand and enrich our shared story.

Our archives tell stories through a range of materials and formats:

Postcards
Many of these materials were gathered through the important Save Our Ukrainian Canadian Heritage (SUCH) Project. Others document the development of the Museum itself, including the personal records of founders and long-time supporters such as Rose Dragan, Marie Kischuk, and Mary Wiwcharuk.
Ongoing Projects
As part of a broader digitization and accessibility initiative, we are currently:
- Photographing and conducting additional research on our artworks and artefacts
- Rehousing and documenting our archives
- Organizing and cataloguing our library holdings
These efforts will culminate in a public, searchable online database, making our collections and resources more accessible to everyone.
