Tribes — a living exhibition presenting groups of masked people walking through the centre of Prague. Each tribe starts their stroll at the Náprstek Museum and everyone is welcome to join them. During their walk, each tribe has the opportunity to stop at the special stage set up in the park on Kampa and give a short performance.

The accompanying program at the Náprstek Museum:
Handa Gote: The Hut
The Hut built by the art group Handa Gote will house some of their art
items and performances as well as Martin Vosáhlo's original photos
of costumes made in Handa Gote workshops. The Czech tramping
movement, a distinctive form of escapism and a microcosm of society
with its own rituals, costumes, and music, is highly theatrical in nature.
On most days, Handa Gote will meet at The Hut to hold discussions,
work on their new performances, and answer any questions that curious passers-by may ask.
Vojtěch Poláček and Vít Pokorný: The Recycled Theatre
At the National Museum's History of Theatre Department we oversee
the largest theatre collection in the Czech Republic, comprising
approximately 800,000 artifacts. Over the past few years, we have been placing greater emphasis on documenting contemporary theatre — such as keeping records on how a production originates, and researching current trends in theatre architecture.
The exhibition, which is installed in a unique pavilion constructed
from discarded theatre seats, presents current projects focusing on
adapting non-theatre spaces and temporary objects that are mobile,
nomadic,transformable, or made from recycled materials.
