One Comment

Šárka Botner was born and raised in Prague, Czech Republic. Often called the “the city of a hundred spires,” Prague is a stunningly beautiful city where merchants, artists, and inventors have met since the Middle Ages.

Raised in this environment, Šárka says, “I believe each of us has a creative code that is hardwired into our imagination. My creative impulses, such as capturing details, restoring frescos, putting brushstrokes on a canvas, and translating three-dimensional spaces into two dimensions, are comforting and exciting.

    Concord Center takes justifiable pride in its history, but today great things are happening in West Concord. Innovation and self-reliance are nothing new on the west side of Route 2; they’ve defined the community for centuries.

    Established for Social & Mutual Improvement: The Concord Lyceum

    The Lyceum Movement started in New England in 1826, when educator and scientist Josiah Holbrook founded the first lyceum in Millbury, Massachusetts. Inspired by the classical Lykeios (Λύκειος) in Ancient Greece, where Aristotle taught, the movement was created to bring education to ordinary people through lectures, debates, and readings. Lyceums quickly spread across New England, fostering education, self-improvement, and civic engagement, and many towns soon formed lyceums of their own, including Boston in 1829 and Salem in 1830. By the 1830s, there were Lyceums across the country.
