Tabook is an international festival of small and medium-sized publishers (www.tabook.cz), which takes place in Tabor, the Czech Republic. This year, the fifth year, we are starting on Thursday, 29th September, and finishing on Saturday, 1st October. During the festival days we offer a rich programme for general public like author readings, displays, concerts, children programme, theatre etc. Also, however, we provide a profession-oriented festival focused on authors, publishers and book-sellers, teachers, librarians and the others from the world of books. Traditionally, we organise various readings, meetings, lectures, conferences, and, first and foremost, friendly get-togethers with Czech and international (mostly European) publishers, through which you will be enabled some space and time for possible future collaboration on several levels.
More than 70 Czech and foreign publishers, various authors connected with the art of book, art schools studios specialized in books and illustrations, book professionals present their work not only in the main premises of Tabook festival: Sýpka (book market in the old brewery), but also in whole center Tabor. Tabook occupies town buildings and other places: galleries, museums, streets, building of old electricity substation, theatre as well as cafés, pubs and clubs … Tabook occupies Tabor with book culture. Come and occupy with us!

Preview in U Radnice Gallery (Koželužská 140)
Tereza Říčanová draws, paints and writes. She observes the world around: cycle of seasons, the life of her family, light and colours in the scenery… Pure reality does not exist. Everything is clothed in colours, manifold shapes and full of stories, humour and secret.
Kitty Crowther is the author of 40 picture books for children. Her imaginative and compassionate books originated in modern books (Lobell, Jansson), but also in the world of fairytales and myths. She is inspired by beetles, jellyfish, mushrooms…clouds and lights… She would have become a biologist, if she wasn’t an artist.
