Given Edmonton's huge Ukrainian population and long history of immigration, this museum is surprisingly small. While it continues to search for bigger digs, it shows a tiny collection of traditional costumes, toys and artwork. The cultural center in the same building hosts pierogi suppers on the last Friday of each month (adult/child $17/6). Check its website (www.uocc-stjohn.ca) for details.
