This will be our 5th annual International Market. That time again to do some spring cleaning and clear out all of the clutter from the year past to make space for the summer. This event will be an opportunity for the Prague community to get together and sell their goods, share international food, and build new contacts. Give the kids a chance to meet some new friends and the parents and adults a chance to eat some good food and find a great bargain or deal on new and used goods!

Note: Due to this year’s interest, we have NO seller places left for this event. But we do invite you to visit as a buyer!
