Association
Translation House Looren is run by the association of the same name. Through its support of literary translation, the association contributes to a dialogue between languages and cultures. It runs the translation house as a non-profit institution. Individuals and institutions can support our activities through an association membership. Members are invited to our public events and are regularly informed about our offers and events. Membership costs 60 CHF per year for individuals, 120 CHF for institutions and 500 CHF for patron members. We thank our patrons Mara Züst and Interserv Zurich for their kind support.
