Pushkin House Trust
 United Kingdom  |  Arts/Culture

The mission of Pushkin House is to serve as a home and dedicated showcase for Russian culture; a focus for formal and informal Anglo-Russian cultural exchange; a channel for cultural contacts in both directions; a provider of education and information on Russian language and culture; a resource and networking centre for individuals and institutions.

Pushkin House owes its foundation to the energy and vision of Maria Kullmann, daughter of the famous Moscow surgeon Mikhail Zernov and wife of Gustav Kullmann, a renowned Swiss lawyer who worked for many years in the top echelons of the League of Nations. Founded in the 1950s, Pushkin House has been established to serve as a home and dedicated showcase for Russian culture in London, a focus for Anglo-Russian cultural exchange, a provider of education and information on Russian language and culture, a resource and networking centre for individuals and institutions. In pursuit of these aims, Pushkin House has developed a lively and varied cultural programme on Russian literature, art, film, music, theatre and dance, as well as history, philosophy and politics. Events include lectures and talks, seminars, conferences, exhibitions, films, concerts and readings. The House also has its own reference library of Russian culture.
