Chervona Ruta is an art festival in Ukraine.[1] The name of the festival derives to the famous Ukrainian song Červona Ruta. The first festival took place in Chernivtsi in 1989 because this city is situated in the native region of song's author Volodymyr Ivasyuk.
Next years the festival occurred in Zaporizhia, Donetsk, Crimea, Kharkiv and Dnipropetrovsk. In 2001—2007 it held in Kiev and in 2009 in Chernivtsi again.
