LECTURES
Our lectures, by internationally acclaimed presenters on a wide variety of topics normally take place in the Digby Hall, Sherborne on the first Wednesday of each month (except January and August) at 3 pm and 7 pm.
Visitors are welcome
STUDY DAYS
Each year we hold 3 or 4 Study Days in which the lecturer explores a subject in more detail over a series of 3 lectures Coffee is served between two morning lectures, then a lunch with wine or soft drinks is enjoyed followed be a third lecture after lunch.
VISITS
Residential visits are “on hold” at present but in normal circumstances we organise several residential trips a year, both in the UK and overseas, accompanied by local guides.
SOCIAL
A very sociable and friendly Society we arrange special lunches and dinners during the year. We are hoping to be able to hold our lunch at the Manor House at Leweston School in October and our Christmas dinner at the Grange in Oborne in December. Obviously any such arrangements are at present subject to the Covid-19 restrictions.
YOUNG ARTS
We organise events for young people under our “Young Arts” scheme.
CHURCH RECORDERS
Members can get involved in the “Church Recorders” programme which records every detail in local churches and which is becoming a record of national importance in the UK.
