Comment

This medal celebrates the Ukrainian National Museum of Chicago, which also serves as an archive. The museum, which was established by the efforts of several generations of emigrants to preserve the spiritual heritage of the Ukrainian people, represents Ukrainian history and culture on the American continent. Founded in 1952, the museum plays an important role in the cultural and artistic world of the Ukrainian diaspora in the United States, serving as a place where people can unite around the idea of Ukraine’s independence, and shaping the national identity of Ukrainians. The museum boasts about 100,000 pieces of archive materials about the history and culture of Ukraine and unique relics of the past – from the Cossack age to the present, which tell about the national liberation struggle, artificial famine as an act of genocide against the Ukrainian people, and their path to independence.
