Olomouc: Danube Day festivities and Ty Syčáci concert (25 June 2010; 14:00)
A great rivers day for all the family. Join in with environmental games and learn about rivers and the creatures that inhabit them at a workshop for children aged 4-13 years (14:00-17:00). Find out more about rivers and environmental protection at our information tent (14:00-17:00) or from expert lectures on the myriad of life found in urban rivers (17:00-18:00). Afterwards, you can join in a debate on rivers (and the Morava in particular) between town officials, NGOs, water authorities and engineers (18:15-19:30). To round off the day, Ty Syčáci will get everyone in a party mood with their mad blend of rock, jazz, Moravian folklore and world music.

Overseen by the Danube Environmental Forum and organised in the Czech Republic by the Union for the Morava River, the Danube Art Master competition is a creative extravaganza that challenges every pupil in the Basin to create a piece of environmental art inspired by their local river. The only rules are that you should be as creative as possible and think about what the Danube means to you.
