OUR LIFE Monthly, published by Ukrainian National Women’s League of America Vol. LXIII JANUARY 2007 Editor: TAMARA STADNYCHENKO From the Desk of the President Ambassador Oleh Shamshur, UNWLA President Iryna Kurowyckyj, and Mrs. Alla Leshko during Ukrainian Museum’s 30th anniversary luncheon In this first issue of Our Life magazine for 2007,1 would like to share with readers some news about a wonderful event that occurred at the end of November 2006: The Ukrainian Museum in New York cele brated its 30th anniversary.
