COL-BOOKS · Collection

The collection consists of published books, reports, commemorative volumes, newsletters, and other monographic publications created by the Ukrainian community organizations in Quebec. The materials document the educational, cultural, advocacy, religious, social service, and other activities of local organizations. Currently documented publications span the period between 1963 and 1994; other publications may be added with time. The collection was assembled by the repository to document the history and public voice of community organizations.

This book provides a coherent picture and reveals a wide panoramic view of the artistic life of Ukrainians living in Quebec, with its colorful palette, from the period of first settlements to the present day. At the heart of this publication are carefully gleaned archival photographs and jubilee booklets of churches and civic organizations, materials from private collections, collected stories and memories shared by older members of the community, the long-time residents of Montreal, and recent arrivals. This book allows to get acquainted with the work of not only those Ukrainian artists who were or are native to this province, but also those who were connected with Quebec for a short while due to life’s circumstances. You will also have the opportunity to discover many interesting facts about the cultural and artistic kaleidoscope that is the Ukrainian community.
