artbreak™ Celebrates Spring and the Prague Fringe Festival
Six Perfect Prague Days to Luxuriate in the Healing Magic of the Arts
25.05.2025 - 31.05.2025
OVERVIEW
After a long and gray central European winter Prague greets sunny springtime with an explosion of artistic events of all varieties. Join with us for a bloom of nature and creativity in (who can argue?) the worldʼs most beautiful city. During your 6 days, you will feast on the offerings available in music, dance, and visual arts – while developing your own inner artist during our enjoyable and invigorating morning artistsʼ workshops. Our week includes a generous sampling of the offerings of the Prague Fringe Festival – a bonanza for lovers of off-the-beaten-path theater and music.
ART WORKSHOPS
Prepare to never be bored! Every one of this session’s five morning workshops introduces a new medium, spanning from sculpting to water color to plein air painting in Letna Park (overlooking the magnificent Prague skyline). A morning at artbreak™ is not a “master class” for professional artists but a chance for ordinary people to relish the catharsis and fun of artistic expression, in the supportive company of gifted art teachers. All artbreak™ morning workshops are designed to accommodate beginners: No prior experience or even prior interest is required – just a willingness to explore something new for a few days. That said, if you do happen to be an accomplished artist, artbreak™ is a no-risk chance to try new media for expressing yourself, and for meeting artists in a different country.
