Nine Ukrainian artists, most of them displaced by the current war in Ukraine and relocated to the Pacific Northwest, are represented in this exhibit. Each of the three rooms of the Wagner House's gallery space will be devoted to the display of a specific style or type of media: 67 pieces including floral paintings in the traditional Petrykivka and Samchykivka styles, Kosiv painted ceramics and Pysanka eggs, as well as more abstract and modern pieces.This opening reception will feature live music by HraiMore and pianist Olga Yanushevich.
