In addition to hosting this art exhibit, Branch 30 sold baked goods, Ukrainian Christmas cards, notecards, cookbooks and honey which was donated by one of its members, Roxolana Podpirka. Handmade Christmas ornaments by Halyna Slabodukh were very popular. In previous years, Branch 30 has exhibited works by Christina Holowchak-Debarry, Wolodymyra Wascicko, and Slava Gerulak. Proceeds from this event are allocated to the UNWLA Scholarship Fund. UNWLA BRANCH 30 HOSTS ANNUAL ART EXHIBIT by Nadia Liteplo Members of UNWLA Branch 30.
