Workers of the World Unite: Tours of the Historic Ukrainian Labour Temple part of Doors Open

Posted April 13th, 2026

Saturday 30 & Sunday 31 May:

11:00 – 4:00 pm

Ukrainian Labour Temple (591 Pritchard Ave.)

How time flies, it seems like just a short time ago we were celebrating 100 years of the Ukrainian Labour Temple, and here we are still going strong.

More than just a structure, this building was constructed by a group of people with a vision to make life better for the working class. Although long gone, these visionaries have left a legacy of a movement that still oozes and resonates from its walls to this very day!

Stay too long and you may feel yourself drawn to pick up the torch for the struggles of labour that is still as relevant today as it was back then.
