- Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art
The Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art (UIMA) (Ukrainian: Український Інститут Модерного Мистецтва, "Ukrayinskyi Instytut Modernoho Mystetstva") is a modern art museum serving the greater Chicago area with an ongoing program of cultural exhibitions, literary events, film screenings and music recitals. UIMA was founded in 1971 by Dr. Achilles Chreptowsky in the heart of Chicago's Ukrainian Village.
Five to six major exhibits are held in the main gallery which occupies 2100 square feet. Three side galleries house the permanent collection which includes the work of Chicago artists as well as that of sculptors and painters of Ukrainian descent.
UIMA is committed to a program of exhibitions, concerts, lectures and multidisciplinary events relevant and challenging to all members of the community. The immediate neighborhood is home to an ethnically diverse population and offers a wide variety of cultural events. UIMA is a not- for- profit organization staffed entirely by volunteers.
In 2006, the Institute celebrates its 35th anniversary.
