Architecture and Design Lecture Series Kicks Off Today

Vancouver is home to some of the most beautiful architecture in the world. With new condos and other developments going up all the time, we have truly seen this city evolve into quite the metropolis filled with fascinating buildings and interesting designs. The Vancouver League is a registered non-profit society that provides "a forum for the discussion of current ideas in architecture and environmental design" and their lecture series starts today.

All of the discussions will be held at C 300 Theatre inside UBC at Robson Square, pictured above. The downtown campus can be found at 800 Robson Street in Downtown Vancouver and all lectures in the season are scheduled to start at 6:00pm in the evening. These popular lectures are completely open to the public and no RSVP is required.

Here is the schedule for the fall:
