During his lifetime, Vasyl Avramenko created many Ukrainian dance studios, including one in New York City where he lived until his death. He staged performances across Canada and USA, including the Chicago World's Fair of 1933 and a performance at the White House. In the 1930s, Avramenko also produced Ukrainian movies.
