Join us for a special alumni edition of our signature program, running since 2015!
The series brings together artists, professionals, scholars, and scientists of Czech or Slovak descent to present their work, projects, research, or studies in a six-minute talk in English.
This edition will feature presenters from the program’s early years—before we recorded the sessions—offering a look back at the voices that helped shape the series from the beginning.
Presenters include Petr Dubecký (graphic designer), Dino Dvorák (neuroscientist), Vera Dvorák (AI linguist), Antonín Fajt (composer and pianist), Hanka Gregusová (jazz singer), Roman Heczko (furniture designer), Karel Hermánek (actor and director), Pavlína Horáková (TV moderator), Viktor Kryštufek (holistic clinician), and Lenka Wooten (youth novelist).
Expect a wide range of perspectives, disciplines, and stories—and plenty of inspiration and fun. The evening will conclude with a wine reception, providing an opportunity for informal discussion and networking.
Tickets: $5 (plus processing fee) are available via Eventbrite.
Seats are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.
This event is organized by the Czechoslovak Society of Arts and Sciences (SVU), New York Chapter, with the support of BBLA.
