To serve both our members and the general public, the NMV has organised the past 61 years an annual Introductory Lecture Series.

The Introductory Lecture Series gives you the opportunity to learn more about Thai history, art, culture and religion. The lecture series consists of 6 to 8 talks presented over a three or four-week period.

Previous topics include:

The Splendour of Khmer art in Thailand
The Ramakien (with puppet demonstration)
Traditional festivals in Thailand
Thai history from the past to the present
Thailand a Buddhist country

The Introductory Lecture Series is timed to serve as an Introduction for the Guiding Workshop. This year the annual Introductory Lecture Series are held at the National Museum's auditorium every Thursday morning during November.

Enrich your stay in Thailand by learning more about the history, culture and religion of the region. While the lectures are designed to provide a basic grounding in Thailand’s rich heritage, there are several new topics which will interest longer term Bangkok residents as well as visitors and newcomers.

Two lectures will be delivered each morning. All are welcome to attend the full series or to ‘dip’ into the lectures of choice.

This series is held during the last quarter of the year. Watch the website for details.
