Performing Arts
The performative program of the Art Center serves as a continuously operating alternative theatre platform in Lviv, dedicated to creating and presenting both in-house and guest productions. We focus on stage works that engage with political and social processes, while exploring new and relevant forms. A key component of the program is its educational initiatives, which include workshops, lectures, discussions and performative laboratories for and with artists, fostering collective growth and free experimentation.
