MULTISTORY Winter 2015/2016 Line-up



 

We’re delighted to announce the extraordinary Multistory line-up of open lectures for the coming term. Kicking off on Thursday 8th October with Will Jenning, this term’s series includes a range of thinkers, writers and commentators amongst the usual mix of prolific architectural practitioners.

Multistory lectures run from 1800-1900 on Thursday evenings in the Architecture Foyer at UCA Canterbury, unless stated otherwise. There is always a bar for good discussion and debate before and after. Details for each event are posted here in advance.  Follow us on twitter to keep up to date on additions to the programme.

Multistory is an alumni and student led initiative within the School. This year the reformed Canterbury Architectural Student Association have been working on enhancements to the series. All events are free and open to all.
