Dauphin Consumers Co-op has made a significant contribution to the Ukrainian Folk Arts Centre and Museum, also known as the Selo Ukraina site.
They have donated 200 gallons of paint, worth an estimated $12,500, through their Communities in Full Colour program.
Folk Arts Centre President Jim Perchaluk is very appreciative of the contribution.
"The site needs a facelift, and what better time than this year, as it is the 60th anniversary of Canada's National Ukrainian Festival. So the paint will not only brighten up the place, but it will preserve the wooden buildings that we have at the festival site."
Perchaluk says painting at the site will begin soon, with plans to be complete prior to the start of Countryfest in late June.
