New program kickoff!
CZECH LANGUAGE PLAYGROUP
For children 3-7 years old with their parents
Sunday, NOVEMBER 16, 2025
10 am – 12:30 pm
Bohemian National Hall, 3rd Floor
321 E 73rd Street, New York, NY 10021
We invite all preschool-aged children and their parents to the inaugural gathering of the revived Czech language playgroup, organized by our SVU NY board member, Vera Dvorak. Siblings of other ages are welcome.
The program will feature Czech rhymes, songs, movement, reading, creative activities, and a special guest, Vit Horejs*, the renowned New York puppeteer, and a fellow board member. He will join the children to perform two Czech fairy tales.
***
The main objective of the playgroup is to provide young children in our community with the opportunity to spend a few hours in a Czech-speaking environment with their peers, and to bring Czech and Czech American families together.
If there is sufficient interest, the playgroup will meet monthly.
