MeetFactory
MeetFactory is a non-profit international center for contemporary art founded in 2001 by the artist David Černý. In the wake of the destructive floods of 2002, MeetFactory was forced to evacuate its previous premises in Holešovice. The project was resurrected three years later in an industrial building in Prague's quarter Smíchov, in a unique space squeezed between a motorway and an active railroad. The program started after a substantial reconstruction in 2007.
The program of MeetFactory consists in four dramaturgic departments - music, theatre, gallery and the artist-in-residence program.
The music program presents the international independent music scene, holding six to eight performances per month in the music hall fitted with high-end audio equipment.
The theatre program focuses on contemporary prose, as well as experimental interdisciplinary projects, often involving visual artists, musicians, or non-actors.
The three galleries offer space for critical confrontation of the national and international art scenes. The MeetFactory Gallery focuses on original curatorial projects, while the Kostka Gallery presents solo shows of emerging and established artists. The program of the Wall Gallery, a side-facade of the building, comprises of large-scale realizations beyond street art.
The international Artist-in-Residence program is the largest studio program in the Czech Republic. MeetFactory facilitates fifteen studios, which annually host over thirty visual artists, curators, musicians, theatre directors or writers. We foster the involvement of our artists in residence not only within the programming of MeetFactory, but also in the context of the Czech and Central European art scenes.
Besides the four dramaturgic departments the program of MeetFactory is oriented on inter-genre and educational projects which offer the public new forms of encounter with contemporary art.

Obecní dům - Smetanova síň
The largest area of the Municipal House is the central Smetana Hall, accessible from the foyer on the first floor. By naming the concert hall, Prague paid tribute to the creator of Czech modern music, Bedřich Smetana. Of the plastic decoration, the most remarkable are the stucco groups Vyšehrad and Slavonic Dances on the sides of the stage by Ladislav Šaloun. The sculptor thus happily solved the question of commemorating the second genius of Czech music, Antonín Dvořák. To Smetana's Vyšehrad from the cycle of symphonic poems My Homeland, the character of the legendary Lumír, accompanied by a harp, narrates the myth of the homeland, while the opposite dancing couple is a motif taken from Dvořák's Slavonic Dances. In the interior of the Smetana Hall, however, there is a reminder of other Czech composers, whose portrait medallions are located on the bust of the lodges and the balcony.
Paintings of the ceiling panels and wall paintings by Karel Špilar contribute to the overall airy and at the same time festive impression of the space. Especially the monumental murals Music, Poetry, Dance and Drama are among the author's best works ever.
Smetana's Hall is primarily a concert hall for 1,200 listeners, in which since its opening the world's most important ensembles and performers have performed, and occasionally various social events take place here - especially traditional balls or popular representative gala dinners. The Prague Spring music festival is regularly opened and closed in the Smetana Hall.
