Evening Programs
We launched a new experiment: the Language Lab now stays open from 5pm to 6pm, Monday through Friday. These evening sessions include conversational practice with native speakers, talks, poetry readings, and guided self-study with the Mediatheque.
The program is free of cost to Aurovilians, Newcomers, Volunteers, Guests, and people from around the Auroville area. If you once learned a language but feel a bit rusty, come and revive it.
Everyone is welcome to join, share language, and practise together in a relaxed, supportive evening setting.
