Preconference Programme
Discover Prague!
20–21 August 2022
The first two days of the conference are reserved for ICOM Statutory meetings, such as the ICOM Advisory Council, the separate meetings of the National and International Committee and the International Committee Chairs' meetings. These meetings are not open to all members, but it doesn’t mean that you can’t start enjoying what ICOM Prague 2022 has to offer!
An accompanying pre-conference programme of guided tours around Prague has been prepared for all participants. Experienced guides will take you to the most remarkable places of Prague and introduce you to the history and attractions of this extraordinary city.
The National Museum of Agriculture will kindly host cooking classes, where participants of the 26th ICOM General Conference can get a hands-on experience of traditional Czech cuisine.
Your choice is to be made upon the registration process.
The organizers reserve the right to change the programme.
