The ProART festival is entering its 16th season this year. This international festival of dance, singing, acting, photography and other performing arts has revealed thirty tutors for summer workshops, which take place in five cities of the Czech Republic. The motto of this year's season is "Trust in yourself... follow your dream...". Among the tutors at the Brno part of the festival there are dancers Eran Gisin, Leoni Wahl and Žiga Jereb, writer Tereza Boučková, singers Ilona Csáková and Lukáš Janota, and actress Vica Kerekes.
The ProART workshop festival will be held in five cities – Jičín, Plzeň, Brno, Valtice and Mikulov. The motto of this year's festival is confidence in oneself and the courage to follow one's own dreams. In its multi-genre range, it offers three dozen tutors of dance, singing, acting, writing and photography. For the first time, the festival will be hosted also in the Wallenstein Lodge in Jičín, where a three-day festival will take place under the guidance of musician Gabriela Vermelho, dancers Zuzana Richterová, Martin Dvořák and acting duo IMPRA. The Moving Station in Pilsen will be attended for the second time already by singers Lenka Dusilová and Radka Fišarová, director Štěpán Pácl, dancers Tine Schmidt, Morgan Reid, Israeli choreographer Noa Dar and more. The festival marathon will also reach its destination for the first time in the town of Mikulov. However, Brno remains the centre of the festival with almost twenty lecturers headed by dancers Eran Gisin, Leonie Wahl, Žiga Jereb , writer Tereza Boučková, singers Lukáš Janota, Ilona Csáková, actress Vica Kerekes and additional lecturers from South Korea, Austria and Bohemia. The festival will be held again in the beautiful ambiance of the Governor's Palace in the very centre of Brno. The Brno part of the festival is announced to take place from 14 to 21 July 2019 in the Governor's Palace, the Moravian Gallery and Moravské Square 1a.
Festival director Martin Dvořák explained the motto of this year: "I have an increasing feeling that each of us has a dream of some kind, but refuses to believe it can be realised. I am asking how much our real life is affected by our thinking and belief in ourselves. I would like people to realise their hidden dreams at the festival; these dreams may come true one day. In fact, the power of thinking shapes our lives."
From the second half of April, you can sign up for the workshops that offer professionals and the general public tuition in disciplines such as dance, acting, singing, photography, creative writing and music. Courses run throughout the day, are graded according to difficulty, and all participants can combine their daily schedule by themselves. The second part of the festival is an evening programme, which presents teachers – active artists – in excerpts from their repertoire and also invites other guests to appear in concert, dance or theatre performances. You can sign up for the workshops online here .
