SUMMARY:Globe Creative Writing Group
DESCRIPTION:Globe Creative Writing Group was established in October of 2016. We meet weekly at the Globe Bookstore on Mondays from 19-21.  \nFeel free to come by and introduce yourself\, whether or not your facebook request has been acknowledged by us. We receive many requests\, and prefer to accept those we know will contribute later on. :). \nWe are an eclectic group composed of various writers practising a range of techniques. We’ve so far been writing short fiction\, poetry\, essays\, genre fiction\, experimental prose\, surrealism\, playwriting\, screenwriting\, non-fiction as well as long-term projects. \nThis group relies on and sustains itself through thoughtful and productive critique. During our meetings\, we discuss each member’s submission (should they choose to submit that week) in depth. \n At the end of each meeting\, a prompt is assigned that we will base our submissions for the next week on. Transcending the prompt\, of course\, is always possible. If you would like feedback on a long-term project or a submission that isn’t related to the prompt\, feel free to do so. \n \nRules and Guidelines for Submissions: \n-To ensure everyone can give\, and get\, quality critiques\, we will review no more than 8 submissions per week. \n-Please submit by Saturday at the latest. As many of us have jobs\, families\, holidays etc.\, we need ample time to give thoughtful feedback and criticism to each submission. If you submit later than the Saturday deadline\, don’t worry! We can save your work to critique the next week. \n-If you do submit\, please be present at the meeting that your work will be critiqued. If you cannot make it\, please let the group know via the Facebook group. If we take the time to critique\, we want to know that you will be there to accept feedback. Again\, if you cannot make it\, we will save your submission for the next week. \n-Please do not submit work that is longer than 1\,500 words. We want to make sure everyone receives ample time to discuss and is not overwhelmed by the amount of content they will need to read. Because of this\, please try to adhere to a no more than 1\,500-word standard. \n \nAI Disclaimer \nWriters: If you’ve used AI in your work\, please inform us and tell us to what extent you have used AI. \nCritiques: Please refrain from using AI to assist in your critiques. We are sharing our work with others because we want your perspective. \nPrompts are meant to be broad in order to maximize creativity. We have had long-term projects devised from simple prompts and continue to! It’s a way for us to break free of our comfort zones as writers. Don’t be afraid! \nAs a group\, we also encourage publishing work\, whether it be in Prague or outside. Feel free to post any publishing opportunities you think would fit the group or anyone in it. So far we have had several prize winners and magazine publications from group members. This group is fundamentally about encouragement! \nAny other questions\, please send us a message on Facebook 🙂 \nHappy writing!

SUMMARY:Come and speak czech Mondays
DESCRIPTION:Už od rokem 2018 se u drinky potkáváme s cizinci co dlouhodobě žijí v Praze a pomáháme jim s procvičováním češtiny.Since 2018 we have been meeting up with expats living in Prague long-term over a drink to help them better their czech knowledge.Free entry.CO TO JE? // WHAT IS IT?It is a meetup for everyone who has lived in Prague for some time and wants to get serious about their Czech language skills. It doesn’t matter where you come from\, everybody attending will be lead to chat in Czech.Michael Thomas constructed a successful language learning method using audio recordings of a class\, leaving space and time for students to try to compose the sentences themselves.As many other psychologists assume\, your brain learns best while creating the content itself. For example: once you count a simple numerical task yourself\, you are much more likely to remember the procedure years after\, than if you just try to remember every formula there is.Our language lessons uses this knowledge to create a completely new approach to this. We assume that you have picked up a few words over the months or years you have lived here\, maybe you read a book or two and maybe there is a Czech dictionary next to your toilet bowl.Maybe you understand a little bit\, but you are too lazy\, shy or insecure to use this skill in conversation. Well\, guess what – everybody attending is having the same issue as you\, and yes – you can switch to Spanish or English or any language you prefer if you feel more comfortable that way\, and maybe meet someone interesting and want to have a more complex conversation.You are not going to leave with seven different homeworks\, we are not going to give you tests or grades. We will just provide the comfortable and inspiring space of an art gallery\, background music and some refreshments\, and encourage your brains to do the job instead of the teachers.You should be at least somewhat serious about learning Czech to enjoy the experience fully\, but you are more than welcome to come pay us a non-binding visit either way.DO YOU WANT TO SUPPORT US?Come and speak Czech events are free of charge. If you fell in love with what we do and want to help us grow it\, you can support us at our Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/speakczech  \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/1976394742912999/?event_time_id=1976394862912987

SUMMARY:Život Briana v Biu Oko
DESCRIPTION:🐣Ve své době vyvolal Život Briana skandál kvůli neúctě k církvi\, dnes zbyl velice zábavný snímek parodující příběh o Ježíši. Brian se totiž narodil ve stejný den jako Mesiáš\, se kterým si ho všichni pletou\, což vede ke spoustě absurdních gagů. Hlavní hrdina se připojuje k Lidové frontě Judee\, aby pomohl svou zemi osvobodit od nadvlády Římanů. A to i přesto\, že Římani dali Židům vodovod\, silnice\, pořádek\, kanalizace\, školství\, víno…To je snad bez debat\, ne? \n⏳ 3. dubna v 17.30🎟️ Vstupenky: biooko.net/zivot-briana \nŠestice z Monty Python se tu objevuje hned v několika rolích. Graham Chapman hraje nejen Briana ale i Pya Čůra\, Michael Palin se objevuje v roli Piláta i soucitného dozorce vydávajícího kříže odsouzencům na smrt atd. Známým vtipálkům při natáčení posloužily dokonce i marocké kulisy Hvězdných válek. \n———- \n🇬🇧 Monty Python delivers the group’s sharpest and smartest satire of both religion and Hollywood’s epic films. Set in 33 A.D. Judea where the exasperated Romans try to impose order\, it is a time of chaos and change with no shortage of messiahs and followers willing to believe them. At it’s center is Brian Cohen\, born in Bethlehem in a stable next door\, who\, by a series of absurd circumstances is caught up in the new religion and reluctantly mistake for the promised messiah\, providing ample opportunity for the entire ensemble (Graham Chapman\, John Cleese\, Terry Gilliam\, Eric Idle\, Terry Jones and Michael Palin) to shine in multiple roles as they question everyone and everything from ex-lepers\, Pontius Pilate and haggling to revolutionaries\, crazy prophets\, religious fanaticism\, Roman centurions and crucifixion\, forever changing our biblical view. \n⏳ April 3 at 17.30🎟️ Tickets: biooko.net/zivot-briana

SUMMARY:Face to Face with Artistis in prague
DESCRIPTION:WHY?The “Artists in Prague” PB group was created almost ten years ago\, when I settled in Prague\, yet we’ve never met in person. It’s time to meet face-to-face and let new collaborations flourish. In many sectors\, foreign and local artists are still separated and show little interest in each other. Why is that? Let’s demystify this separation and create a more dynamic\, inclusive\, and international art community. \nWHEN?We will meet every first and third Friday of the month at a cozy café in Prague 1\, the Dorado Cafe\, starting at 18:00. Bring your friends\, share ideas\, and let’s make it happen! \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/1757825948670681/?event_time_id=1757828665337076

SUMMARY:Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe
DESCRIPTION:We usually discuss and arrange details in whatsapp – if you would like to join please message Lydia Titterington or email Pragie Literary Calendar contact@pragueliterarycalendar.com\, and we can send you the link to join. \nA simple story of a “strong man” whose life is dominated by fear and anger\, Things Fall Apart is written with remarkable economy and subtle irony. Uniquely and richly African\, at the same time it reveals Achebe’s keen awareness of the human qualities common to men of all times and places.

SUMMARY:Shut Up & Write! ve Skauťáku
DESCRIPTION:Shut Up & Write! — a worldwide phenomenon. No matter\, if you’re sixteen or sixty\, come and join us on a writing adventure! Anyone’s welcome! You don’t have to be an established author. In fact\, you don’t have to be an author at all! Join our laid‐back group on a Sunday afternoon\, and work on anything you desire. A novel\, a short story\, a screenplay\, a diary entry\, a scientific paper\, a poem\, a recipe\, a blogpost\, or maybe just an urgent e‐mail? Whatever it is that’s on your mind\, we’re here to silently support your efforts. You’ll find us every Sunday at high noon in one of the café back rooms — usually the first one. We gather\, grab some refreshments\, and around 12:15 start a short introductory round. Then we — as expected — Shut Up & Write! We write in two 45‐minute blocks with about 15‐minute break in between to stretch\, resupply\, or visit the bathroom. Perfect for networking too! At the end\, we have a short wrap‐up loop. Sometimes we stay and chat a bit afterwards\, share news\, ideas\, fresh thoughts… But we’re usually done even with that by 3 pm latest. Of course\, you’re free to leave anytime! Started by a San Francisco based sci‐fi writer Rennie Saunders in 2007\, based on years of experience\, and joined by over 10\,000 writers in over 400 cities in more than 60 countries worldwide. Now in Prague! Come try the magic of writing in a company. The primary communication language is English\, but you can write anything you want\, in any language you prefer. No sharing\, no critique\, no stress\, completely free. Participants can be assisted in Czech if necessary. ~~~ Shut Up & Write! (Zmlkni a piš!) — celosvětový fenomén. Ať už je ti šestnáct nebo šedesát\, přijď a připoj se k našemu psacímu dobrodužství! Všichni jsou vítáni! Nemusíš být zavedený/á spisovatel/ka. Vlastně vůbec nemusíš být spisovatel/ka! Připoj se k naší uvolněné skupině během nedělního odpoledne a pracuj na čemkoliv se ti zachce. Román\, povídka\, scénář\, deníček\, vědecký článek\, báseň\, recept\, blog\, nebo třeba jen urgentní e‐mail? Ať už myslíš na cokoliv\, my tvé úsilí tiše podpoříme. Najdeš nás každou neděli v pravé poledne v jedné za zadních místností kavárny — obvykle té první. Sejdeme se\, dáme si něco dobrého\, a okolo 12:15 začneme krátké úvodní kolečko. Potom — dle očekávání — zmlkneme a píšeme! Píšeme ve dvou 45minutových blocích s přibližně 15minutovou pauzou uprostřed na protažení\, doplnění zásob\, nebo návštěvu toalet. Také je to skvělá příležitost pro navázání hovoru! Na konci pak máme krátké shrnutí. Občas se zdržíme a zabředneme do hovoru\, sdílíme novinky\, nápady\, čerstvé myšlenky… I tak ale býváme nejpozději kolem třetí hotovi se vším všudy. Můžeš ale samozřejmě odejít kdykoliv! Stvořeno sanfranciským autorem sci‐fi Rennie Saundersem v roce 2007\, založeno na letech zkušeností\, s více než 10 000 účastníky z více než 400 měst ve více než 60 zemích. Nyní i v Praze! Přijď zkusit kouzlo skupinového psaní. Primárním komunikačním jazykem je angličtina\, ale můžeš psát cokoliv chceš v jakémkoliv jazyce uznáš za vhodné. Žádné sdílení\, žádná kritika\, žádný stres\, zcela zdarma. A pokud je angličtina problém\, rádi ti pomůžeme i česky!

SUMMARY:Globe Creative Writing Group
DESCRIPTION:Globe Creative Writing Group was established in October of 2016. We meet weekly at the Globe Bookstore on Mondays from 19-21.  \nFeel free to come by and introduce yourself\, whether or not your facebook request has been acknowledged by us. We receive many requests\, and prefer to accept those we know will contribute later on. :). \nWe are an eclectic group composed of various writers practising a range of techniques. We’ve so far been writing short fiction\, poetry\, essays\, genre fiction\, experimental prose\, surrealism\, playwriting\, screenwriting\, non-fiction as well as long-term projects. \nThis group relies on and sustains itself through thoughtful and productive critique. During our meetings\, we discuss each member’s submission (should they choose to submit that week) in depth. \n At the end of each meeting\, a prompt is assigned that we will base our submissions for the next week on. Transcending the prompt\, of course\, is always possible. If you would like feedback on a long-term project or a submission that isn’t related to the prompt\, feel free to do so. \n \nRules and Guidelines for Submissions: \n-To ensure everyone can give\, and get\, quality critiques\, we will review no more than 8 submissions per week. \n-Please submit by Saturday at the latest. As many of us have jobs\, families\, holidays etc.\, we need ample time to give thoughtful feedback and criticism to each submission. If you submit later than the Saturday deadline\, don’t worry! We can save your work to critique the next week. \n-If you do submit\, please be present at the meeting that your work will be critiqued. If you cannot make it\, please let the group know via the Facebook group. If we take the time to critique\, we want to know that you will be there to accept feedback. Again\, if you cannot make it\, we will save your submission for the next week. \n-Please do not submit work that is longer than 1\,500 words. We want to make sure everyone receives ample time to discuss and is not overwhelmed by the amount of content they will need to read. Because of this\, please try to adhere to a no more than 1\,500-word standard. \n \nAI Disclaimer \nWriters: If you’ve used AI in your work\, please inform us and tell us to what extent you have used AI. \nCritiques: Please refrain from using AI to assist in your critiques. We are sharing our work with others because we want your perspective. \nPrompts are meant to be broad in order to maximize creativity. We have had long-term projects devised from simple prompts and continue to! It’s a way for us to break free of our comfort zones as writers. Don’t be afraid! \nAs a group\, we also encourage publishing work\, whether it be in Prague or outside. Feel free to post any publishing opportunities you think would fit the group or anyone in it. So far we have had several prize winners and magazine publications from group members. This group is fundamentally about encouragement! \nAny other questions\, please send us a message on Facebook 🙂 \nHappy writing!

SUMMARY:Come and speak czech Mondays
DESCRIPTION:Už od rokem 2018 se u drinky potkáváme s cizinci co dlouhodobě žijí v Praze a pomáháme jim s procvičováním češtiny.Since 2018 we have been meeting up with expats living in Prague long-term over a drink to help them better their czech knowledge.Free entry.CO TO JE? // WHAT IS IT?It is a meetup for everyone who has lived in Prague for some time and wants to get serious about their Czech language skills. It doesn’t matter where you come from\, everybody attending will be lead to chat in Czech.Michael Thomas constructed a successful language learning method using audio recordings of a class\, leaving space and time for students to try to compose the sentences themselves.As many other psychologists assume\, your brain learns best while creating the content itself. For example: once you count a simple numerical task yourself\, you are much more likely to remember the procedure years after\, than if you just try to remember every formula there is.Our language lessons uses this knowledge to create a completely new approach to this. We assume that you have picked up a few words over the months or years you have lived here\, maybe you read a book or two and maybe there is a Czech dictionary next to your toilet bowl.Maybe you understand a little bit\, but you are too lazy\, shy or insecure to use this skill in conversation. Well\, guess what – everybody attending is having the same issue as you\, and yes – you can switch to Spanish or English or any language you prefer if you feel more comfortable that way\, and maybe meet someone interesting and want to have a more complex conversation.You are not going to leave with seven different homeworks\, we are not going to give you tests or grades. We will just provide the comfortable and inspiring space of an art gallery\, background music and some refreshments\, and encourage your brains to do the job instead of the teachers.You should be at least somewhat serious about learning Czech to enjoy the experience fully\, but you are more than welcome to come pay us a non-binding visit either way.DO YOU WANT TO SUPPORT US?Come and speak Czech events are free of charge. If you fell in love with what we do and want to help us grow it\, you can support us at our Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/speakczech  \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/1976394742912999/?event_time_id=1976394866246320

SUMMARY:Eyal Poleg – The Great Bible as a Useless Book
DESCRIPTION:V dubnu vystoupí se svým příspěvkem v rámci cyklu Staročeský dýchánek Eyal Poleg (Queen Mary University of London). Přednášku v angličtině můžete vyslechnout 7. 4. 2026 od 17 hodin v dolním sále pražské budovy Ústavu pro českou literaturu AV ČR (Na Florenci 3\, Praha 1)\, vstup je zdarma a bez registrace. \nAnotace:The Great Bible (1538/9) is often seen as a monument of reform and authority in Tudor England. A detailed study of dozens of surviving books and manuscripts\, at times using scientific technologies\, will reveal hesitations and tensions in its creation and reception. Despite being mandated for each parish church in the realm\, the Great Bible was incompatible with Church liturgy\, making it a contested book which was required to be displayed but illegal to be read by most parishioners.

SUMMARY:Inner Spaces Prague vol. 12 - art gathering 💫
DESCRIPTION:Inner Spaces is a safe space for artists to share. It is a monthly gathering where four artists of all kinds (poetry\, visual arts\, music\, fashion\, dance\, …) present both their work and the process behind it. An honest dialogue between the artists and the audience then emerges. It is a place to share\, feel encouraged\, and get inspired. It’s a way to quickly and deeply step outside your usual bubble. And\, of course\, a place to connect with other creative and curious souls. \nThe project originates in Lisbon and was brought to Prague in April 2025. Since then\, it has hosted 11 magical evenings with different artists in different spaces and\, most importantly\, created a space for both established and emerging artists to share.Join us this evening – get inspired and become part of the Inner Spaces community. 💫 \n📍 Kampus Hybernská – C.0 Čítarna⏳ Doors open 18:45\, Start 19:00🌿 Free entry\, donations welcome \n🔮 See you there?#innerspacesprague #creativecommunity #pragueevents #artgathering #poetryprague #hyb4 #kampushybernska \nPart of @inner_spaces_lisbon by Iva Divic

SUMMARY:PERFORMANCE BUS (polem performativního umění jižní Moravy)
DESCRIPTION:~* ENG BELOW *~Dubnová série Performance Busu tentokrát vzniká v kurátorské spolupráci s Terénem scénou Centra experimentálního divadla\, a seznámí nás s pulzujícími místy a kolektivy nezávislé kultury jižní Moravy. \nSpolečně s kolektivem Lofofora se vydáme na performativní procházku krajinou. Navštívíme část jednodenního festivalu pořádaného brněnsko-zlínským kolektivem\, který ve své tvorbě pracuje s DIY principy v netradičních festivalových formátech. Čeká nás kolaborativní koncert zvukových umělců z katedry Sonologie v Haagu a instalace Evy Jaroňové v Zámeckém mlýně v Lomnici. \nVe Znojmě navštívíme GaP / Galerie a Prostor a ve veřejném prostoru uvidíme performance choreografky Anny Wańtuch\, která zde dlouhodobě žije. V improvizaci inspirované projektem Azyl polské vizuální umělkyně a scénografky Ksenie Makały pracuje s rozlehlou plastickou fólií jako s útočištěm\, které zároveň chrání i omezuje. Choreografie a každodenní gesta otevírají napětí mezi tělem a objektem a zkoumají azyl jako vztah péče. \nSpolečně zavítáme do ateliéru SVITAVA transmedia art lab zvukového a mediálního umělce\, experimentátora\, konstruktéra a skladatele Jiřího Suchánka.Ve své tvorbě se zaměřuje na tvorbu zvukově-světelných instalací a systémů\, které jsou obvykle interaktivní a umístěné v přírodních nebo veřejných prostorech. Synesteticky kombinuje zvuk\, světlo\, objekty\, mechaniku\, elektroniku a kódování s pečlivě vybranými prostory a často zapojuje přírodní\, chaotické\, termodynamické procesy do generování nebo ovládání vznikajících hudebních a světelných vzorců. \nNaši výpravu završíme v nezávislém brněnském kulturním centru Rello koncertem a komunitní večeří. \nOběd i večeře jsou v průběhu Performance Busu zajištěny. Vezměte si s sebou prosím hotovost a svačinu na cestu autobusem. \n⋆.ೃ࿔*:･ 𝗝𝗜𝗭𝗗𝗘𝗡𝗞𝗬 𝗣𝗔𝗬 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗖𝗔𝗡 : ̗̀➛ bit.ly/performancebus-jiznimorava \nITINERÁŘ CESTY:  \n➱ 8:15 sraz před Studiem ALTA \n➱ 8:30 výjezd autobusu od Studia ALTA \n➱ 11:00 Lofofora – koncert na mýtince u obce Jamné \n➱ 12:30 oběd v Bistru Zámecký mlýn v Lomnici  \n➱ 13:30 Lofofora – instalace na Zámeckém mlýně v Lomnici \n➱ 16:00 performance ve veřejném prostoru Anny Wańtuch \n➱ 17:00 návštěva GaP / Galerie a Prostor Znojmo \n➱ 18:30 návštěva ateliéru Jiřího Suchánka \n➱ 20:00 Rello Brno \n➱ 23:30 návrat do Studia ALTA \nKurátorský tým: Tobiáš Nevřiva\, Orin Rodriguez\, Matyáš Dlab\, Anna Prstková a Kristýna BusinskáProdukce: Mara ŠevčíkováŘidič: Pan Marcel \nPerformance Bus je kouzelná pouť\, na kterou se vydáváme v čele s panem řidičem Marcelem už podeváté. Je prostředkem\, kterým směřujeme naši pozornost k různorodým nezávislým platformám věnujícím se umění performance i kulturním aktivitám odehrávajících se v rozličných koutech a zákoutích ČR. Každou cestou chceme navazovat nová přátelství\, zažívat dobrodružství a nacházet jedinečné umělecké aktivity na místech\, na kterých bychom je možná vůbec nečekalx. \n*~ ENG ~* \nPERFORMANCE BUS (The Field of Performance Art of South Moravia) \nThis April edition of Performance Bus is created in curatorial collaboration with Terén – the Field for Performing Arts and introduces audiences to the vibrant spaces and collectives of independent culture in South Moravia. \nTogether with the Lofofora collective\, we will embark on a performative walk through the countryside. We will visit part of a one-day festival organized by the Brno-Zlín collective\, which works with DIY principles in unconventional festival formats. We can look forward to a collaborative concert by sound artists from the Department of Sonology in Hague and an installation by Eva Jaroňová at the Castle Mill in Lomnice. \nIn Znojmo\, we will visit GaP / Galerie a Prostor and see a performance by choreographer Anna Wańtuch\, who has been living here for a long time\, in a public space. In an improvisation inspired by Ksenia Makała‘s project Azyl\, she works with a large plastic sheet as a refuge that both protects and restricts. Choreography and everyday gestures reveal the tension between body and object and explore asylum as a relationship of care. \nWe will also step into the studioSVITAVA transmedia art lab of sound and media artist\, experimenter\, builder\, and composer Jiří Suchánek. His practice focuses on creating sound-light installations and systems\, often interactive and situated in natural or public spaces. He combines sound\, light\, objects\, mechanics\, electronics\, and coding with carefully chosen environments\, frequently incorporating natural\, chaotic\, and thermodynamic processes into the generation and control of emerging musical and light patterns. \nOur journey will conclude at the independent cultural centre Rello in Brno with a concert and a community dinner. \nLunch and dinner are provided during the Performance Bus. Please bring cash and a snack for the bus ride. \n⋆.ೃ࿔*:･ 𝗣𝗔𝗬 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗖𝗔𝗡 𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗞𝗘𝗧𝗦 : ̗̀➛ bit.ly/performancebus-jiznimorava \nITINERARY:  \n➱8:15 meeting in front of Studio ALTA \n➱8:30 bus departure from Studio ALTA \n➱11:00 Lofofora – concert in a clearing near the village of Jamné \n➱12:30 lunch at Bistro Zámecký mlýn in Lomnice \n➱13:30 Lofofora – installation at Zámecký mlýn in Lomnice \n➱16:00 performance in public space by Anna Wańtuch \n➱17:00 visit to GaP / Galerie a Prostor Znojmo \n➱18:30 visit to studio of Jiří Suchánek \n➱20:00 Rello Brno \n➱23:30 return to Studio ALTA \nCuratorial team: Tobiáš Nevřiva\, Orin Rodriguez\, Matyáš Dlab\, Anna Prstková and Kristýna BusinskáProduction: Mara ŠevčíkováDriver: Mr. Marcel \nPerformance Bus is a magical journey we are embarking on for the ninth time\, led by our driver Mr. Marcel.
