The center regularly holds open and free educational events that take place at various urban venues. In addition to central and peripheral libraries (Mayakovskaya, Frunze, and others), recently, there has been a public series of events in the "Open Space" in the center of St. Petersburg. The events are diverse in their specific themes, but they are all united by the search for "no man's land" – a territory where different sciences, cultures, and ideologies intersect. How do we encounter a different language, identity, perspective on the world? How do we preserve ourselves while remaining open to interaction?
Events
At Mayakovskaya Library in Saint Petersburg , we are pleased to offer a unique Language and Cultural Exchange Club aimed at fostering language development and cross-cultural understanding. This initiative is tailored for both foreigners living in Russia who wish to enhance their Russian language skills, as well as for Russian nationals who are interested in improving their English and connecting with people from diverse backgrounds. Our program offers participants the chance to:
Engage in Russian language practice with native speakers
Enhance English communication skills for Russian participants
Share experiences and gain insight into life in Russia and other countries
Participate in structured, interactive activities designed to promote language fluency and cross-cultural understanding
Whether you are a foreign resident looking to immerse yourself in the Russian language, or a Russian seeking to meet international participants and broaden your cultural perspective, our club provides a welcoming environment to improve language skills while fostering mutual respect and collaboration. Join us to enhance your language abilities, expand your global network, and participate in an enriching cultural exchange.
