On the 28th of October, it will be exactly 100 years since the establishment of Czechoslovakia and thus founding of modern and democratic Czech statehood. We have been enjoying the celebrations already at other occasions this year, but in October we will have the pleasure to raise a glass with audience from across Europe at the opening of an engaging exhibition about the Czech and Slovak century in the most prestigious premises of the European Commission. Join us!

Those who want to shape the future of our continent should well understand and honour our common history. Among other European countries, the Czech and Slovak Republics celebrate 100th year anniversary of their establishment in 1918 as democratic states. It is our great honour to present an exhibition commemorating the events leading towards this geopolitical change in the Central Europe and what followed after in the wider European context. The exhibition is interesting, engaging and fun but with seriousness and factual accuracy using both traditional displaying techniques and new technologies. The exhibition also includes a collection of students’ posters on the topic of the anniversary. Registrations for the opening on 18 October necessary before 8 October HERE.
