Program

As part of the American Academy's public program, each week we offer public lectures, concerts, screenings, or readings by Academy fellows, distinguished visitors, and special guests. Most evening lectures take place at the Hans Arnhold Center, but the Academy also partners with a handful of cultural institutions in Berlin for special events: Radialsytem V, the JFK Institut of the Freie Universität Berlin, Kino Babylon, the Haus der Kulturen der Welt, the United States Embassy, and the Hertie School of Governance. The spring 2012 semester sees additional exciting partnerships, including: März Musik|Berliner FestspieleLiteraturhaus Stuttgart; carlier|gebauerDialogue Books11.

If you would like to attend an event, please register online, or send an email to program@americanacademy.de. Seating is limited, so please register well in advance of the lecture or event you would like to attend. We look forward to welcoming you at the Hans Arnhold Center.
