Description of Pictures: The dedication event was the next day but the designer, Larysa Kurylas, and Michael Kiminski, whose field in Manitoba provided the basis for the wheat sculpted, were in Union Station in preparation. Also around for the weekend events was the Holodomor National Awareness Tour, a project conceived by the Canada-Ukraine Foundation, and supported by the Government of Canada and the Governments of Ontario and Manitoba, to raise awareness of the Holodomor.
I did not attend the actual dedication ceremony. The weather forecast was rain and cameras and rain aren't the perfect combination.

Wikipedia Description: Holodomor Genocide Memorial
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Holodomor Memorial to Victims of the Ukrainian Famine-Genocide of 1932–1933 was opened in Washington, D.C., United States, on November 7, 2015. Congress approved creation of the Holodomor Memorial in 2006.
The memorial was built by the National Park Service and the Ukrainian government to honor the victims of the Ukrainian Famine-Genocide of 1932–33 and to educate the American public.
The memorial, designed by Larysa Kurylas, is one of three monuments in Washington, D.C., designed or co-designed by women—the others being the Vietnam Veterans Memorial and the National 9/11 Pentagon Memorial.
The memorial is located near the U.S. Capitol building at the intersection of North Capitol Street, Massachusetts Avenue, and F Street N.W. It is diagonal to the Smithsonian's National Postal Museum, about one block from Union Station.

2015 photos: I retired from the US Census Bureau in god-forsaken Suitland, Maryland on my 58th birthday in May. Yee ha! Trips this year: a quick trip to Florida. two Civil War Trust conferences (Raleigh, NC and Richmond, VA), and my 10th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including Los Angeles). Ego Strokes: Carolyn Cerbin used a Kevin Costner photo in her USA Today article. Miss DC pictures were used a few times in the Washington Post. Equipment this year: I mostly used my Fuji XS-1 camera but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. Number of photos taken this year: just over 550,000.
