“I love #DoorsOpenWinnipeg because this is the 3rd year my friend and I have been, it’s become an annual tradition! Today we explored the Legislature, Ukrainian Cultural Center, Black History at the Millennium Centre, A Community Story, and Holy Trinity Ukrainian Orthodox Metropolitan Cathedral! More adventures tomorrow and in the years to come!”
