The Contemporary Arts Center "DAKH" was opened on November 12, 1994 by Vladislav Troitsky, who at that time did not link his destiny with the intention to seriously engage in theater and art. The first director of the DAKH Theater was Volodymyr Ogloblin (1915–2005). In 2004 the ethno-group DakhaBrakha was founded. Since 2007, CSM "DAKH" is the main organizer of the international festival of contemporary art GogolFest. In 2012, the band Dakh Daughters was founded. In 2016, the social rave of the band CESHO was founded. == Performances ==
