E. W. Cole, of Cole’s Book Arcade, was a dynamic bookseller, activist, and champion for literacy and education. His eccentric arcade was a testament to his buoyant belief in the power of knowledge.
This annual lecture continues his legacy by inviting Australia’s brightest thinkers to deliver talks that spark optimistic, progressive and future-thinking ideas for our society and our world, and celebrate Cole’s dedication to the fruitful intersection of intellect and play.
