Interactive Programme for Schools

The interactive programme for schools at the Jiří Nachlinger Puppet Gallery in Kuks invites school groups on an excursion into the world of Baroque. Students will enter Kuks' "beautiful valley" and watch a site-specific theatrical performance "On the Origins of Kuks", which presents the history and uniqueness of this place in an engaging way. The programme includes a tour of an exhibition of 50 puppets inspired by Braun's sculptures and a presentation of their stories. The programme lasts 1.5 hours, is designed for groups of up to 30 children, and takes place in June at any time by individual arrangement. The price per group is 4,500 CZK. Booking and inquiries: galerieloutek@theatrum-kuks.cz or tel. +420 602 470 459. The gallery is located in the heritage-protected Comoedien-Haus (no. 51) in Kuks and through its programme supports the UNESCO patronage (2016) of Czech puppet-theatre tradition.
