CRCEES Winter Festival
Staff from Central and East European Studies are widely involved in the CRCEES Winter Festival, a major festival of arts and cultural events.
The season includes major academic conferences on Hungary and Latvia and a special symposium entitled 'Inter-cultural Crossings'; where speakers from many European countries will bear witness to the powerful 'crossings' of other cultures into their own.
Throughout the Festival there will be films, exhibitions of visual arts, literary readings, musical events, dramatic performances, 'taster' days for some of the more 'unusual' languages offered by CRCEES and many other events. These events will seek to attract the widest possible public engagement.
The season will end with two major Conferences: in February we will examine good practice in the teaching of the languages and cultures we offer and the season will conclude with the annual CRCEES Research Forum, to be held in Glasgow in April 2009.
Please see the CRCEES website for a full programme of events. Winter Festival Programme.
