*”˜ ENGLISH LANGUAGE EVENINGS MOSCOW˜”*

Описание

English Language Evenings is an independent, open public English-language lecture forum in Moscow, having hosted more than 150 meetings and some ~130 different speakers since starting in 1998. Meeting usually twice a month from mid-October all to late May, ELE hosts (mostly) native English speakers, usually prominent and/or interesting individuals from Moscow's greater English-language and/or foreign-resident community, giving lectures on topics of their own choosing. Among the PURPOSES of ELE is the providing of an intelligent-intellectual evening in Moscow in English, the presentation of a wide variety of topics and speakers, and the promotion of more personal contacts between the speakers and Russians in Moscow. All visitors, Russians and "expats" are welcome! The lectures COST 100 rubles to attend. (This is modest support for the library and for ELE expenses. The speakers' honoraria have gone over the years in their names to well-known Russian charities: ROOF, ARC, Moscow Animals, Big Brothers, Big Sisters, Nastenka, et al.) LOCATION: Lectures are held in the: Chekhov Library/Cultural Center Strastnoi Bulvar 6 Moscow (Just north of the Metro Chekhovskaya street exit -- somewhat across from the large cinema at Pushkin Square -- look for the "6" on the building; go through the tunnel/arch to the back side of the building. Take the first gate/door immediately as you exit the tunnel.) Click here for map! TIME: Lectures usually start at 19:00, followed by Q&As, discussion, comments, etc; and ending about 21:00.
