Šestatřicátníci (“Those born in 1936”) was the first literary and artistic group which Václav Havel assembled at the beginning of his career, in years 1953–1954. Many writers and publicists came from the group, including four extraordinary authors: Jiří Kuběna, Josef Topol, Věra Linhartová and Viola Fischerová. “Spring with those born in 1936” will consist of several mutually interconnected cultural events: Cycle of five literary evenings; Exhibition of art of Jiří Kuběna; Discussions of Those born in 1936.
