OPEN CALL for artists to participate in the decolonial art project “Reclaiming History”

The project is aimed at critically rethinking the museum narratives of Kryvyi Rih, in particular the exhibitions of the Kryvyi Rih Local History Museum.

Its goal is to identify and transform colonial, imperial, and Soviet interpretations of local history that continue to shape the perception of Ukrainian cultural heritage, especially in frontline regions.

We are looking for artists working with documentary photography to participate in the exhibition “Atlas of Danger”

“Atlas of Danger” is a research-based curatorial project that explores documentary photography of the war in Ukraine as a form of cultural memory and responsible witnessing.

As a result of the open call, four artists will be selected whose works will become part of the exhibition.

We are excited to announce a new partnership!

We are pleased to share the beginning of cooperation between the Kryvyi Rih Cultural Centre / KRCC and the Ukrainian-Danish Youth House 🇺🇦🇩🇰

As part of this collaboration, we are launching the KRCC Culture Talks project — a series of events and digital content aimed at developing the cultural environment of Kryvyi Rih.

April 26, 2026

April 26 is a day that forever changed not only Ukraine, but the entire world.

On this day, we remember the Chernobyl disaster — a tragedy that became a symbol of the fragility of human control over technology, and at the same time an example of extraordinary courage.

The Kryvyi Rih Cultural Centre / KRCC joins in commemorating this date and reminds us: memory is not only about remembrance, but also about responsibility for the future.

Warmest wishes to you on the bright holiday of Easter!

The founder of the Kryvyi Rih Cultural Centre / KRCC, Kateryna Levchenko, will join the discussion “Culture Beyond the Capital: New Centers of Influence”.

Today, culture is not only about Kyiv and Lviv. How is cultural life developing in the regions? What new practices are emerging in local contexts? Who are the cultural protagonists of their cities and communities?

During the discussion, we will talk about what makes Lutsk, Poltava, Cherkasy, Drohobych, and Kryvyi Rih worth visiting, how local initiatives are reshaping perceptions of the regions, and how they are contributing to a new cultural map of Ukraine.

April 12, 2026

Warmest wishes to you on the bright holiday of Easter!

We wish you strength, inspiration, and faith—in yourself, in your loved ones, and in the future. May there always be space around you for life, love, and culture.

Looking back at 2025!

This year at KRCC was about movement, encounters, and depth. About culture as a space for thinking, dialogue, and change. We continue—because culture is a process through which we collectively rethink reality 🫰

July 7, 2025

From July 7 to 10, the team of the NGO Museum Open for Renovation and the DE NE DE initiative visited Kryvyi Rih.

Our guests included: Alevtyna Kakhidze, Olena Zaretska, Alina Yakubenko, Dana Brezhnieva, Marta Bilas, Natalka Dyachenko, Zhanna Kadyrova, Leonid Marushchak, Kseniia Bilash, and Dasha Podoltseva.

Together we visited the Burschytskyi waste heap, the Red Lake, and the flooded granite quarry in Zarichne — places where nature and the industrial landscape intersect in striking forms.

July 1, 2025

We present the catalogue of the project “Reimagining the Museum.”

The project aims to initiate a critical dialogue on the functioning of regional museums in the context of postcolonial heritage, imperial narratives, and local memory. Its focus is the case of the Kryvyi Rih Historical and Local History Museum.

April 20, 2025

KRCC wishes you a Happy Easter!

May your days be filled with vibrant colors, warm gatherings, and bright emotions. Let this holiday bring renewal, inspiration, and faith in all things beautiful.

Why March 8 is not about a “Holiday of Spring,” but about struggle?

The usual greetings about tenderness, beauty, and femininity on March 8 sound strange once you remember how it all began.

In 1857, textile workers in New York went on strike demanding fair working conditions. In 1908, more than 15,000 women marched through New York for equal pay and the right to vote. In 1910, Clara Zetkin proposed the establishment of International Women’s Day as a day of struggle for women’s rights. Within a few years, this day became a symbol of protest in many countries.

February 24, 2025

On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine

But for Ukrainians, this war began back in 2014. For three years now, our country has been standing in the fight for freedom, independence, and the future.

We remember. We support. We do not remain silent.

The world must not get used to war. We must keep reminding people about Ukraine’s struggle, help those on the front lines and in the rear, support families who have lost their homes, and continue speaking out about the crimes of the aggressor.
