Lecture Hall on New Holland

28 april 2017

Starting May 10, the Pavilion on New Holland Island will host Lecture Hall, a series of regular educational programs, spanning six different areas of interest: from lectures in the social sciences, in collaboration with the Higher School of Economics in St Petersburg; to architecture-related offerings, in collaboration with the magazine Project Baltia; a film program, put together by Séance Magazine; lessons in urban gardening from the organization, Dacha in the City; as well as a series of public talks on contemporary art and a literary club.

Lecture Hall was formulated to help bring high quality educational initiatives to a wider audience. The topics for the lectures have been specially selected to appeal to a broad range of ages and demographics. The lectures in this particular program will run on the island until October. Admission to the lectures is free of charge. For more information, including a schedule, please refer to this page.

Please note that due to weather conditions, the landscaping work on the island has been delayed. The children’s playground, herb garden and lawn will remain closed until the weather warms up. Beginning May 1, the park will switch to operating on its summer hours, opening daily at 9:00 am.
