The Assortment Room/Asortymentna kimnata, an artist run residency space, was founded by Alona Karavai in 2014 during the last Russian attack as a retreat for artists. It is located in Ivano Frankivsk, in western Ukraine. Since February 2022, Lesya Khomenko, an artist and curator from Kyiv who fled to Ivano Frankivsk has helped to organise the project. The initiative has created a place for cultural workers who had to flee from embattled areas but want to stay in Ukraine. Both living space and studios are provided.

Another important goal of the initiative is to offer spaces for the storage of artworks from the major cities under attack. Artworks are transferred to Ivano Frankivsk and kept there safely.

The artists' space currently consists of a large appartment, a cellar and storage rooms. The plan is to rent additional studio space of 70 square metres in the same house, where until March 2022 a private art school for children was located. This room will cost an additional 300-350 euros per month. Another appartment where Asortymentna kimnata hosts artists is located outside Ivano Frankivsk in the countryside.
