✈️ Budapestet és az Egyesült Államokat újra közvetlen repülőjárat köti össze, így minden eddiginél könnyebb lesz felfedezni Amerikát.

És hogy miért ideális érkezési – és kiindulópont – Philadelphia az amerikai utazásokhoz? Megmutatjuk.

✈️ Budapest and the United States are connected again by nonstop flights, making travel across America easier than ever.

And Philadelphia is a particularly appropriate gateway to the United States – why? We’ll show you.

What does freedom mean today—and how has its meaning evolved over time? ✨

In connection with the 250th anniversary of the United States 🇺🇸, we invite secondary school and university students to explore the idea of liberty through creative expression in any of the following formats:

🎨 drawing, painting, illustration
📸 photo or collage
🖥️ digital art / poster
📖 comic
✍️ poem, slam poetry, short literary text
🎬 short film
🧩 installation or mixed media

📝 Each submitted work should be accompanied by a short description (3–5 sentences) in English, presenting the idea behind the work.

💡 Suggested sub-themes (optional):
• Freedom and responsibility
• Freedom then and now
• Symbols of freedom
• Freedom of expression
• Freedom and technology
• A moment of freedom

🖼️ Selected works will be exhibited at American Corner Debrecen from the week of June 15 until July 10, 2026.

🎤 The opening event will include a short live program (e.g. slam readings, film screenings, guided walkthrough of the exhibition).

🗳️ Visitors will be able to vote for their favorite works on-site during the exhibition. In addition to the audience award, a jury prize will also be awarded for the best submissions.

🏆 Results will be announced at our Independence Day celebration on July 3.

🇺🇸 English Conversation Club – American Holidays Special 🇺🇸

Join us on May 26 (Tuesday) at 5 pm for a relaxed and engaging conversation about American holidays and traditions!

With Memorial Day as our starting point, we’ll explore how holidays reflect American history, identity, and culture — from remembrance and parades to fireworks and barbecues. We’ll also talk about Independence Day and the upcoming U.S. Semiquincentennial (America’s 250th anniversary in 2026), and what these celebrations mean to Americans today.

Expect lively discussion, cultural insights, and plenty of opportunities to practice your English in a friendly international environment. 🇺🇸🎆

🇺🇸✨ Yesterday we had the pleasure of welcoming Alma Veres, recipient of the prestigious Benjamin Franklin Transatlantic Fellowship! 🎓🌍

She shared her experiences from the month-long program hosted by Purdue University, where students from across Europe and the United States explored diplomacy 🤝, international relations 🌐, leadership 💡, public speaking 🎤, and intercultural dialogue 🌎 — offering an inspiring glimpse into U.S. exchange opportunities ✈️ and studying in the United States. 🇺🇸✨

📣 The next application cycle for the Benjamin Franklin Transatlantic Fellowship is expected to open in January 2027 through the website and social media pages of U.S. Embassy Budapest. We will also share the announcement and application details on our pages once they become available! 🗽🎓

Ady Endre High School is one of American Corner Debrecen’s key partner schools, with a strong English-language community: an active debate club (this year’s winning team at DEbate came from there), a drama club participating in English-language theatre festivals, and regular collaboration with the American Corner.

One of the highlights of their year is C-Day: the project day of the English–Hungarian bilingual program (where “C” is the letter code for the bilingual class in each grade). This year’s C-Day featured a joint program with the American Corner, including a presentation on the American West co-hosted with our guest speaker Norbert Walter, who was born in Hungary but grew up in the U.S. in Fort Worth, Texas — famously known as “Where the West begins.”

Thanks to Ady Endre High School for the invitation. We look forward to next year.
