Literary workshop with City diary!

What forms can an urban diary take? Who speaks through it? What do buildings or statues whisper — and what drama might be unfolding right now, just a few steps away from us?

We invite you to a two-day literary workshop with City diary, which will take place on April 2–3 at the EHMK Office in the former post office building. Led by this year’s editor, local writer and linguist Hana Ditrichová, and American studies scholar Kateřina Kovářová, we will explore the world of stories, voices, and observations that make up the genius loci of our city.  

📅 Thursday, April 2, 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM & Friday, April 3, 9:30 AM – 3:30 PM 

📍 Where: ECoC Office – Nádražní 118/6, České Budějovice (former post office building)

👨‍🦱 Capacity: 12 people
