FESTIVAL ORGANIZATION IN THE KRKONOŠE MOUNTAINS
Leave the city behind and join us for a weekend in the Krkonoš Mountains! Get involved in organizing the DOTEKY Festival, hosted by the SEVER ecological center. Explore the former Baroque rectory, now a center for traditions, culture, and ecology.
The DOTEKY Festival focuses on families with children, offering a rich program filled with music, theater, and creative workshops. The event is woven with themes of ecology and sustainability.
WHAT WE WILL BE DOING
On Saturday, we’ll assist with preparing the venue and then help with organizing the festival itself. You can participate in tasks like selling refreshments, leading creative workshops for children, or managing various activity stations. After the event, we’ll clean up the area together, and on Sunday, we’ll relax while working in a beautiful garden.
No prior experience or skills are needed to join – this event is open to anyone eager to lend a hand!
ADDITIONAL PROGRAM
In addition to the experience of the unique Krkonoš festival, you’ll have the chance to explore DOTEK – the House of Tradition, Ecology, and Culture. The house offers original exhibitions, a beautiful information center, and charming historical spaces. You’ll recharge your energy in the natural garden, full of herbs and native plant species, and learn fascinating facts about the activities of SEVER.
