Children will be introduced to Vaclav Havel and his legacy in an engaging and approachable way, as we celebrate the 90th anniversary of Havel's birth.
In the second part of the program, author Sylva Francova will share the creative process behind her beautifully illustrated book, "Áďa spadla do kanálu aneb Putování dávnou Prahou" (Ada Fell Down a Manhole or: A Journey Through Old Prague). The book takes young readers on an adventure through the changing faces of Prague, spanning from the 10th century to the present day.
During the hands-on workshop, children will get to create an illustrated book piece of their own.
The workshop is held in Czech and English. For school-aged children (7-14 years), parents are welcome to join as well.
Free and open to the public. Suggested donation: $10. Seats are limited, on a first-come, first-served basis. RSVP is required.

The event is organized by the Czechoslovak Society of Arts and Sciences, New York Chapter, and the Czech Center NY, with the support of the Bohemian Benevolent and Literary Association.
