Held in the Testimony Theater of the Vietnam Era Educational Center, each month the Lecture Series features guest speakers or other special presentations inspired by the history and legacies of the Vietnam Era, from the war abroad to conflicts at home.  Programs range from authors and poets discussing their books to artists and photographers, playwrights and film makers showing their works on screen and in gallery displays. 

Lecture attendees are asked to RSVP one week prior to the event.  Teachers who attend will receive professional credit.  Regular admission to the Vietnam Era Educational Center applies to all lectures.  To register or for more information about any of these programs, please call 732-335-0033 or email .
