What is Muddum?

Muddum is a community arts space in Prague aiming to promote interactions, dialogue and 'encounters'

between different cultures through art and creativity. We are a project of the Club of Friends and Fine Arts (KPIVU) and

first opened our doors on June 13th 2004 after two months of hard reconstruction, with the support of the European Youth Programme.

But the history of the Muddum idea goes back further. We are a registered civic association and a volunteer hosting organisation for the

European Volunteer Service and run art workshops and events for both adults and children as well as provide the space for other artists

to experiment with their own ideas, art and courses. We also do art therapy, ecological education and ecopsychology, juggling workshops,

and more. We also organise cultural events in our info-cafe such as concerts with local poets and film screenings in cooperation with

local and international environmental, humanitarian, artistic and social groups. As well as selling unique handcrafted ceramics by

Muddum resident artists, our gallery also show-cases a new artist every month so anyone interested in being an

'artist of the month' should contact us us! You can also relax in our info-café, and be inspired and informed

with books, magazines and more on ceramics, poetry, art, myth, ecology, politics, spirituality, philosophy,

psychology and psychoanalysis. You can play classic games from around the world, from Go to Chess,

Bao Game to Backgammon, Cribbage and darts. And if you are really tired after all that art you

can have a lie down in the hammock. As well as our existing programme we are always

open to cooperate with new people and try out new ideas, so whether

you'd like to have your own exhibition, try to create a new

art course, become an EVS volunteer, organise a film

screening or outreach night, or get a poetry group

going, we look forward to hearing from you!
