Initial Brief

" Experience Prague culture, food, music through the gracious hospitality of a wide variety of traders at the St. Anna's church"

Performance Genre

I want to explore the idea of a market place where activities such as trading, bargaining and auctioning takes place in one platform. It would act as a place for locals and tourist to experience the diverse and unique culture of Prague and promote social interaction with one another.
