The goal of its founders was, as stated in the proclamation distributed by the “Committee for the Establishment of the People’s House”, to allow the residents of Tel Aviv, especially the poor and the youth among them, to expand their education, “to hear educational lectures and enjoy concerts at affordable prices.” According to their vision, Beit Ha’am will be “a center for public education, a meeting place for all of us, a place for spreading the Hebrew language and culture.”

The activity at Beit Ha’am included a series of lectures, discussions of new literary works and Dumas matters, theater performances, and concerts. The lecturers were some of the best experts in their fields, such as Prof. Yosef Kluizner who also lectured at the Hebrew University which was opened at the same time, Ze’ev Vilnai who lectured on the Land of Israel, Dr. Yehezkel Koifman who discussed issues in the Bible, the poets Leah Goldberg and Elisheva who lectured on literary topics and Dr. Yaakov Belovstein (Brother of Rachel the poet), one of the founders of Beit Ha’am who also lectured on the humanities.
