Home – Ukrainian Museum of Canada, Alberta Branch About Us News Events Collections About Us One of the aims of the Ukrainian Womens Association of Canada formed in 1926 was to preserve the embroidery weaving and folk dress of early Ukrainian settlers. Members of that organization began to collect artifacts and to exhibit and display them with the intent to develop appreciation build public support and preserve this heritage. As a result the first Ukrainian museum in Canada was established in Saskatoon in 1936. Subsequently the Ukrainian Museum of Canada Alberta Branch was established in 1944.
