Inauguration of the 2025/2026 Academic Year under the Sign of Witkacy

The official inauguration of the 2025/2026 academic year will take place on Friday, October 3, at 10:00 a.m. in the Main Library of the University of Gdańsk. The event, held under the patronage of Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz – Witkacy – will bring together the entire academic community.

Library users and those wishing to make use of the study spaces are welcome from 1:00 p.m., after the conclusion of the ceremony. Until then, readers are encouraged to visit nearby specialist libraries, which will remain open as usual.

The inauguration of the academic year is always a special moment in the life of the university – a time when tradition meets new beginnings, and the academic community opens another chapter in its history. This year, it will be marked by the spirit of Witkacy – a rebellious artist, thinker, and visionary whose work has inspired, and continues to inspire, the search for new paths in art and science.
