On Saturday, October 12, 2024, from 1:00 PM, the 7th edition of the family and cultural festival Znakofest will take place at Radlická kulturní sportovna in Prague 5.
This festival, organized by Znakovárna, offers a packed day-long program designed for both children and adults, with the goal of celebrating the diversity and culture of the Deaf community.
This year, visitors can look forward to Deaf Expo, where they will have the opportunity to explore booths from various organizations and businesses not only focused on the Deaf. Additionally, there will be an art exhibition by Deaf artists, showcasing a unique perspective on the creativity and talent of this community.
For children, a rich program has been prepared, including a reading corner, painting, a wooden workshop, and “Znakohraní,” an interactive section of the festival aimed at fostering creativity and fun for the youngest attendees. Families can also enjoy a dance workshop by Spolek Ostružina, where they can share the joy of dance and movement together. The theater performance “From Fairy Tale to Fairy Tale” by Divadelní spolek Oukej will bring more entertainment and inspiration for both children and adults.
The day-long program will be complemented by inspiring talks from figures such as Lucie Kastnerová, Vláďa Šimon, Karel Redlich, Jan Wirth, and Radek Červinka, who will share their experiences and stories. The festival will conclude with an evening auction of paintings and photographs, accompanied by a performance by Deaf artists, with free entertainment continuing into the night.
