Debates On Art

Tuesday 05 May 2026

4pm - 6pm

Ele House, College Lane

Join us for an evening debating art at the Ele House🐘

In each round we will divide ourselves into a proposition and opposition team. A thesis will be subsequently provided, such as "fidelity to the original source is an aesthetic merit when adapting literature into film". Both teams will get 10 minutes for preparation and research and will subsequently take turns giving short speeches (up to 5minutes), starting with the proposition party introducing their case. The remaining speeches will all be reply speeches to the other side.

 

What to know about the event:

1. Spectators are welcome 👂

Don't feel like public speaking? No worries at all, spectators are more than welcome:)

2. No experience needed 🌱

Whether you are a debating novice or a seasoned veteran, we will assign you to a balanced team in which everyone can participate and contribute to the best of their abilities.

3. It's all about having fun🥳

This event is all about learning, practicing, meeting people and most importantly, having fun. We will not solve the issues of the artworld in an evening, so don't take the debating too seriously:)

4. Free pizza on the spot🍕🍕

Open to Uni of Herts students and staff with a valid ticket. Please note that tickets are non-refundable, non-transferable and non-exchangeable. View the full Terms & Conditions here
