• Each month we meet in Yapton Village Hall to listen to an expert giving a presentation on his or her specialist subject. It might be painting, sculpture, architecture, embroidery, music, or textiles - our programme secretary finds enormous scope within the phrase “Decorative and Fine Arts”. In addition we have visits and tours to museums, great houses and places of special interest and social events.
• Our meetings are on the 4th Tuesday each month, commencing at 2.15pm. The doors open at 1,30pm and tea/coffee is served before the lecture from 1.45pm.
• Our members come from a wide area around Walberton and Yapton. Visitors are welcome to attend as a guest at a charge of £5, but please advise our Membership Secretary beforehand. No guest may attend more than 2 meetings in any year. Enquiries to our Membership Secretary, Mr Nigel Jolley, Spindles, 10 Wandleys Drive, Eastergate, West Sussex. PO20 3SF.
