Leon Hushcha ’68 will display an upcoming exhibition at The Museum of Russian Art in Minneapolis this winter.

The exhibition, titled The Art of Leon Hushcha: The Way, connects to Hushcha's ancestral roots in Ukraine, being raised in a Ukrainian-speaking family in St. Paul. Each painting in the exhibition is a protest statement against Russia's unprovoked invasion of the country, which has hurt and displaced a countless number of Ukrainian people worldwide.

The Art of Leon Hushcha: The Way
On view December 2, 2023 – March 3, 2024
Opening reception December 2, 7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.
The Museum of Russian Art (Minneapolis)
