A thought-provoking lecture series is due to start in Colchester this September.

The lectures, hosted by ACL Lecture Series, will explore a variety of topics throughout the month, from photography and literature, to positive thinking and insights from great writers.

Each lecture costs £12.75 to attend, runs from 7-8.30pm and will be held at ACL Colchester in the William Marriage Centre.

The first in the series is called Existentialism, Freedom and Cocktails in Paris on September 6, before ‘It Can’t Happen Here’: Dystopian Writers and Modern Times on September 13.

Through the Lens: Life in Photography will be held on September 19, and Re-writing Your Life Script – How to Influence Your Thoughts for Positive Outcomes will be on September 26.
