About the Forum Lecture Series

Since 1969, the Carleton Azrieli School of Architecture Forum Lecture Series has been an inspiring Ottawa staple, introducing architects, designers, and the general community to the leading architectural thinkers of the day.

In a typical Forum Lecture Series style, the 60–minute lecture will be followed by an informal Q&A session.

The Forum Lecture series is a long-held tradition of the school. First initiated in 1968 and popularized in the 1980s and early 1990s the lecture series is an inspiring event, introducing the Carleton community to leading architectural thinkers of the day. Held during the academic year, approximately one lecture is held per month from the end of September to March. — carleton.ca
