Sip and Learn is an ongoing lecture series hosted in bars across Vancouver, where professors deliver 45-minute lectures followed by a Q and A, giving people access to scholarship beyond what they do professionally while still being out for the evening.

Sip & Learn is built on the belief that school should never be the last place a person discovers something that changes how they see the world.Inspired by the 19th-century lyceum movement, when communities gathered to learn from lecturers and participate in the great conversations of their time, we bring professors and experts into Toronto’s bars and social spaces for 45-minute lectures over drinks, making scholarship accessible while restoring the feeling that learning can be both sociable and pleasurable.
