DNO - Featuring more than 20 exhibitions, performances and interactive activities, the Da Nang Art Creatives Connection (DACC) 2026 offers residents and visitors opportunities to explore contemporary art and cultural heritage through creative experiences.
Connecting through artistic experiences
Running from October 30 to November 8 under the theme “History of Tomorrow”, DACC 2026 brings together artists, curators, artisans and creative communities from Vietnam and South-east Asia.
The event features six exhibition spaces, a reading room and more than 20 artistic activities at the Da Nang Museum and the Da Nang Museum of Cham Sculpture.
At the Da Nang Museum, visitors can explore the city’s urban memories through the “Tourane Street Corners” tour, attend photography workshops, meet artists and enjoy contemporary dance performances.
Visitors have praised the exhibitions for their distinctive displays and engaging experiences, which offer insights into the artists and their creative processes.
Meanwhile, the Da Nang Museum of Cham Sculpture offers the “Cham Heritage Journey” tour, introducing visitors to historical artefacts and stories from the ancient Cham civilization.
Other highlights include the “Dong Duong Silk Colors” workshop, discussions on art as a learning space and contemporary dance performances.
Fostering creative connections
Through exhibitions and hands-on activities, DACC 2026 highlights how cultural heritage inspires contemporary creativity.
Embroidery artist Pham Ngoc Tram, who led the "Dong Duong Silk Colors" workshop, introduced visitors to ancient Cham life through silk, cotton fibres, natural dyes and local materials. She hopes future editions will foster artistic collaboration and promote the Quang region’s cultural identity.
Nguyen Thi Hoi An, Deputy Director of the Da Nang Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, described heritage as an important source of artistic inspiration. She expressed hope that DACC would become an annual event, connecting local artists with creative communities across South-east Asia and creating opportunities for new projects and cooperation.
