About the venue: Opava Cultural Organization

Opavská kulturní organizace (OKO) is a municipal cultural body founded in 2007 that runs Opava's cultural life through two main venues. The Obecní dům on Ostrožná street was converted from a former Austro-Hungarian bank building dating to 1918 and has hosted a gallery, a permanent city-history exhibition, the Art music club and the grand Sál Purkmistrů hall since December 2009. The second venue is the Dům umění on Pekařská street - a converted Dominican monastery with exhibition spaces and the adjoining deconsecrated 13th-century Church of St. Wenceslas.
