At PRIOR, our ideals of global connectivity and curiosity mean going beyond traveling together to far-flung places. We’re constantly thinking of ways to unlock the world and other cultures from wherever we are, a goal for which communication is key. Tune in to our first-ever series of language lessons held by experts and expats from Italy, China, and Lebanon. The classes will begin on Tuesday, April 21, 2020 on Instagram’s IGTV @PRIOR and are currently open for public viewing. In the future, PRIOR members will have access to these both in person in our NY HQ and online in an ongoing lesson series.

Wednesdays from April 22 - May 20:
