Main Projects / Activities

Studio ALTA is a well-established and one of the leading Czech independent institutions with over 15 years of history. Every year we host over 100 both local and international artists in more than 200 events. Studio ALTA is a place not only for presenting but also for learning. We are hosting dozens of residencies, masterclasses, networking sessions, and workshops, we are facilitating both long and short-term artistic research. ALTA creates a shelter and a laboratory for artists working mainly in the fields of performing arts but with a close relation to other forms and disciplines. This is why Studio ALTA is one of the key venues in the Czech independent arts infrastructure. It provides necessary contacts, space for creative work, and highlighted spots for presenting work. With its international aspect, it also allows the local community to meet artists from abroad and vice versa.
