The Masaryk Public Library in Vsetín launched a yearlong program beginning in January 2017 called the Cycle - Year on the Road. Each month will feature different countries and will include presentations by people who have either visited the given country or were born there. The monthly program will be further enriched with workshops and readings from contemporary literature from the selected countries.
INDET SAFETY SYSTEMS a.s. participates in the event as well, and the month of March will be dedicated to Japan. Members of the corporate planning department will present interesting themes and customs from the everyday lives of the Japanese. The company also collaborates on the organization of a calligraphy course in Japanese syllabary in cooperation with the Czech – Japanese Association, for which we invited a lector of this traditional art form here to Vsetín. Lastly, we will also take part in the reading of the Japanese literature. You are welcome to join all events.
