We organise a programme of social and cultural events for our members throughout the year. Our monthly illustrated talks are open to all!

Find out more about our upcoming and recent events below.

Upcoming Events

​​IMPORTANT: Our usual event venue - the City Art Gallery Lecture Theatre - is currently closed for renovation.​ ​

 

In the meantime, Southampton City Council has very generously allowed us to meet in the Banqueting Hall at Tudor House & Garden. Our temporary venue has a maximum seating capacity of 35 people.

 

In order to avoid disappointment, we're asking guests to reserve their seats in advance. You can do this by clicking the Register button on the event page, or by getting in touch with the Committee.
