The Night of Ideas is a free marathon of talks, pop-up performances, music, and film screenings featuring thinkers, artists and athletes celebrating the theme of ‘Being Alive.’ This can be understood as a command, a call to awareness, an action, and a commitment. What is being alive? What is our place in the living world? How does ‘Being Alive’ impose on us to take action? These will be the questions at the heart of the 2020 ‘Night of Ideas.’
