<Muzeum Kampa and the Museum of 20th Century Memory have new members of the supervisory and management boards>

Prague - The new member of the board of the Kampa Museum will be the deputy mayor of Prague 9, Jana Nowaková Těmínová (TOP 09), and a member of the supervisory board of the museum will be city councilor and chairman of the cultural committee of the municipal authority, Jan Wolf (KDU-ČSL). The recommendation to the board was approved today by Prague councilors. They also decided that the new member of the board of the Museum of Memory of the 20th Century will be architectural historian Zdeněk Lukeš and Tomáš Mikeska on the supervisory board.

The Kampa Museum is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year since its establishment. It opened in 2003 in the building of the Sovovy mlýny and its founding was primarily driven by the efforts of the collector Meda Mládková. The Museum of Memory of the 20th Century was established by Prague as a so-called registered institution in 2019.

At the Kampa Museum, lawyer Nowaková Těmínová will replace Jiří Pospíšil (TOP 09) in the role of MEP and deputy mayor. Pospíšil resigned from the board in April this year due to workload. Nowaková Těmínová graduated from the Faculty of Law of Charles University. She was first elected to the Prague 9 council in 2010 and is currently the first deputy mayor.

City councilor Jan Wolf will return to the museum's supervisory board, where he has served in the past. Wolf was the councilor for culture of the capital city from 2014 to 2018 and has been the chairman of the committee for culture and tourism of the Prague council since 2018. He is currently a councilor for the Spolu coalition (ODS, TOP 09, and KDU-ČSL).

In the Museum of Memory of the 20th Century, historian Lukeš will replace writer and director of the Academia publishing division, Jiří Padevět, on the board. Prague councilor and deputy mayor of Prague 6, Mariana Čapková (Prague Sobě), resigned from the supervisory board this June. Mikeska will replace her in this position.

It currently does not have a permanent exhibition and is awaiting the reconstruction of the House of Pages in Hradčany.
