НАШЕ ЖИТТЯ • Грудень 2025 21 The preparation of traditional foods for holidays, with each baker adding their own personal touch, is a Ukrainian tradition I cherish and continue. I have been decorating pasky for St. Vladimir Ukrainian Orthodox Church’s Easter bake sale in Philadelphia for many years. I would highly recommend attending the korovai workshop at The Ukrainian Museum in NYC, where I learned additional techniques in shaping and applying dough to make beautiful pasky. Anna Hursky de Vassal – Gwynedd Valley, Pennsylvania In 2001, I had the opportunity to hire Andriy Pikush, a master Petrykivka artist from Ukraine, to decorate several walls in our house. This type of painting is typically done directly onto walls in Ukraine, and he had trav- eled to the U.S. with paper art representing other artists from Petrykivka. We collaborated on ideas, colors, and motifs for the final works, and this is a photo of one finished piece. He stayed at our home to complete the projects. I also set up workshops for Pikush to teach the technique to stu- dents in Philadelphia. Maryann Mysyshyn – Springfield, MA My parents, Hryhorij and Anastasia Mysyshyn, were World War II immigrants to the United States. They began their unwavering support of the UNWLA Scholarship Program during the 1970s, aiding Ukrainian students in Brazil. They did not live to see an independent Ukraine. Growing up, I was brought up to know the Ukrainian language and culture. I knew the best way to hon - or my parents and my Ukrainian heritage would be to continue the good work that they had started. I have done so for the past 35 years. Anna Petelina – Secaucus, New Jersey In October 2023, I had the honor of presenting at the Multicultural Book Festival held at the Secaucus Public Library and organized by The Diversity Center. Understanding Ukraine’s culture and history is essen- tial to grasping the complexities of the full-scale war that russia launched on February 24, 2022. My pres- entation offered an authentic, everyday perspective on how the war has impacted libraries, books, and cultural life in Ukraine. It was an opportunity for the audience to learn not only about the current challeng - es Ukrainians face, but also about the resilience and determination that continue to sustain them.
