Gala evening and presentation of the ICOM flag

24 August 2022

At the 2019 ICOM General Conference in Kyoto, the National Committee ICOM Czech Republic received the flag from our colleagues from ICOM Japan as a symbolic baton of hosting the General Conference.

In Prague, the ICOM flag will again be handed over to the national committee of the country which will host the next General Conference. The members of the ICOM Czech Republic made this symbolic flag by hand in the traditional cross stitch embroidery. The flag travelled to museums all over the Czech Republic and passed through the hands of hundreds of colleagues who embroidered it one by one.

So this flag will not be presented by just one person, but literally by the entire National Committee ICOM Czech Republic – every member, and every museum will symbolically participate in this most solemn moment.

The gala evening will take place at the National Museum, in its unique building right in the centre of Prague.
