The Lidice International Children's Art Exhibition (MDVV Lidice) was founded in 1967 to honor the monuments of child victims from the Czech village of Lidice, murdered by the German Nazis, and all other children who perished in war conflicts. This originally national exhibition became an international exhibition in 1973 and during its history became well known not only among children and teachers here, but literally all over the world. In recent years, more than 25,000 very high-quality works of art from children not only from the Czech and Slovak Republics, but also from other 70-80 countries of the world, have regularly entered the exhibition.

We congratulate the young artists and look forward to this year’s round with the topic of „CARAVAN“!
