As part of the CYCLE UP! project and in cooperation with the Goethe-Institut Prague library, we invite you to the Goethe-Institut on Saturday 30 November for a day full of pre-Christmas activities. We have prepared creative workshops, Christmas music, events for children, reading Christmas stories and games for young and old. During the event, we will focus on reusing recyclable materials and upcycling.

Cookies and carols will provide the Christmas atmosphere! Other refreshments will be available for purchase at the Goethe-Café.

Come and have a day with the Goethe-Institut at Advent time!
