We have created DRUK, a cultural and community center that brings together cultural organizations, local communities, and socially responsible businesses. Our mission is to build a strong, sustainable community that contributes to the cultural, civic, and urban development of the city.
We host art exhibitions, concerts, cultural and educational events, support local initiatives, and provide a collaborative space for artists, researchers, and activists.
Our residents include the NGO “UTP”, “Tvorche Nezhyt” Gallery, “Ocheret” Natural Theatre, “Litslem”, “OPG”, and other cultural initiatives from Kharkiv.
Our spaces are available for rent when no in-house events are taking place. We and our residents are also open to joint projects relevant to our audience.
You can find technical specifications, photos of the spaces, and rental terms below. If you would like to propose a collaboration, feel free to contact us via social media (insert link) or email (insert link).
Research about the building, the surrounding territory, and the future DRUK architectural project is available on the website of our partner Alter Development.
