Entrance is free for the opening of a new Digital Display called “Ukrainian Artists United” and every Friday from 5:00-9:00 pm.

The digital display will be playing at the Museum from February 1- March 31, 2023.  Entrance most days is $5.00 during the month of February. Regular entrance fees resume in March.

On February 24, 2022, Russia mobilized a large-scale military invasion of Ukraine. This conflict is drawing global attention to the nation’s suffering. In August, music producer Darcy Ataman and photographer Jason Willheim travelled to Lviv, Ukraine, for nine days to connect with musicians and artists whose lives have been decimated by the current conflict.  They compiled this amazing Musical Digital Display.
