The Association of United Ukrainian Canadians (AUUC) in Vancouver has been an integral part of its community for generations. Celebrating its 85th anniversary this year, it continues to provide a cultural link to its members: Vancouver Folk Orchestra; an impressive performing dance troupe, Dovbush; and Barvinok Choir, a large and active group of men and women.
The AUUC School of Dancing, for children aged 3-16 years, reflects the diversity of our city and draws people from throughout the neighbourhood as well as across the Lower Mainland, who seek out its precise and creative instruction.
With its ties to the National AUUC organization, our branch benefits from ongoing support and involvement from across Canada resulting in such things as the popular children’s camp in Alberta; national performance festivals; and conferences that bring together members for stimulating discussions and planning sessions on the history and preservation of Ukrainian culture in Canada and ensuring its bright future.
The Ukrainian Hall continues to host many community and artistic events, from the Heart of the City Festival to theatre productions and live music. The Hall is available for private rental. Its proximity to the city centre makes it ideal for any event.
