Ukraine Downunder

Thought you may have missed out? AUV still has a few of these historic books available for purchase!

Ukraine Downunder is an initiative of the Australian Federation of Ukrainian Organisations. You can read more about it here.

You can purchase copies in Melbourne by contacting Felix Figurek on 0401 045 546 for $30 (bargain!).

Richly illustrated in colour and with parallel text in English and Ukrainian, Ukraine Downunder celebrates the 70th anniversary of the arrival in Australia of the post-Second World War wave of Ukrainian immigrants. These courageous pioneers established a Ukrainian community in their new country, cherishing their Ukrainian identity, language and culture. The book is dedicated to them, their children and grandchildren, and to all Ukrainians who have since came to Australia.

Двомовний альбом “Українці Австралії”, ілюстрований в ошатних кольорах, відзначає 70-ліття поселення в Австралії післявоєнної хвилі українських іммігрантів. Завзяті піонери створили в Австралії українську громаду, плекали українську ідентичність, мову й культуру. Видання присвячене їм, їхнім дітям і внукам – а теж усім, хто прибув до Австралії після них і в свій час приєднався до української спільноти цієї країни.

Visnyk Submissions

The next instalment for the Visnyk/Community Newsletter is due!

Please submit your short summary and a couple of photos by COB 20 May 2021 to communications@auv.org.au. Text may be in English or Ukrainian (or both).

Ми шукаємо і запрошуємо контент для нашого наступного Вісника УГВ. Будь ласка, надішліть короткий зміст і кілька фотографій до 20 травня 2021 на communications@auv.org.au. Текст може бути англійською, українською або обидва.

Our first newsletter proved a big success. Over 700 email recipients, 250 hard copies printed and mailed out – AUV’s online reach increases every month. With impending improvements to our website and community events calendar, it is likely to increase further. Our purpose is to centralise the promotion of our flourishing community and continue to grow together.
