Ukrainian Style

Young dancers from the Cheremosh Ukrainian Dance Ensemble demonstrated traditional folk dances and modeled some brightly colored traditional costumes for the weekly Tuesday morning crowd at Caponi Art Park.  The group has existed for over 60 years and now claims 67 dancers between ages 4 to 22. Cheremosh is a river in Western Ukraine, thus their name.

Thanks for the pictures - I especially like the one of the Hutsul dancers.
