From September to June, on the 3rd Monday of the month, we run evening talks by local and nationally-known speakers in the beautiful surroundings of the Recital Room at South Hill Park Arts Centre.
Our meetings have a friendly, informal atmosphere. Visitors are always welcome and there is no need to book. We give a brief update on what the Society is up to and then turn the meeting over to our guest speaker.
Presentations start at 7:30pm and end at about 9:30pm. Doors open from 7:00pm.
Entrance is free for members and £4 for visitors.
