Goethe Lectures Offenbach

Goethe goes to Offenbach: in the “Goethe Lectures Offenbach” series, academics from Goethe University Frankfurt are guests at the Klingspor Museum. The aim of the events is to enter into an exchange with the city society and Offenbach’s cultural and creative professionals and thus to deepen the dialog between science, politics and urban society.


About the event series
The organizers of the lecture evenings at the Klingspor Museum and the series as a whole are the Frankfurt research center “Normative Orders” and the Offenbach Economic Development Agency, which places a clear focus on promoting the creative industries, and the Klingspor Museum Offenbach, which has also made a name for itself beyond the region with its focus on typeface art and typography. The aim of the partnership between the institutions, which has already been preceded by several successful cooperation projects in Offenbach, is to promote dialog between science, politics and urban society.


Start: 7 p.m.
