| Listen to 2013 Greek History And Culture Seminars: Building On Success |
|
Season 1: March – May 2013 Season 2: June – July 2013 Season 3: August – October 2013 One of the bright spots of the GOCMV's cultural initiatives over the last few years has been its History and Culture seminars. These seminars have not only attracted a loyal following of enthusiasts but they have been embraced by many newcomers of varying ages and backgrounds. This is one of the GOCMV's main goals, to expand its reach by attracting more people of both Greek and non-Greek background to its events. The formula is simple, quality speakers and interesting topics that appeal to a wide audience. After two very successful years, this year's organising committee has quite a challenge ahead in maintaining the existing high standards. The group is quietly confident in delivering a strong program that will not only meet but surpass people's expectations. See the full program for Season 1 - March - May 2013. See the full program for Season 2 - June - July 2013. See the full program for Season 3 - August - October 2013. Launched on Thursday 7pm 21st March by Ms Eleni Lianidou, Consul General for Greece in Melbourne and Professor Nikos Papastergiadis, with the first lecture being delivered by La Trobe University's Professor Chris Mackie on Homer. One thing different about this year's seminars will be the location as a result of the GOCMV's Lonsdale Street premises not being available as construction works have begun on the Community's new cultural centre. The new location, the Kelvin Club in Melbourne Place opposite the Russell St Greater Union cinemas, may surprise many but it's probably one of Melbourne's undiscovered gems for hosting events. Although one of the aims of the series is also to provide a platform for showcasing the research work and expertise of local speakers not widely known to the community, the quest for talented speakers hasn't been restricted to Melbourne's shores. This year's program will also see the inclusion of several interstate and overseas speakers. Listen to 2013 Greek History and Culture Seminars - Season 1 Program
