Welcome to the Arts Society Chester!  We host monthly lectures on a wide range of topics relating to the Arts, normally meeting on the third Tuesday of the month from September to June. 

Programme March 2022 – June 2022

The Committee is looking forward to presenting the new lecture season, with a wide range of interesting topics, which will be delivered by lecturers who have been carefully selected to make travel and accommodation as easy as possible, whilst Covid-19 safety is still a consideration.  Lecturers for the 2022 - 2023 Programme are about to be selected and we are  looking forward to choosing some varied and interesting topics for the next year.

Following our trial of different venues, we can now confirm that we will be using Cheshire View as our lecture venue from now on.   As with anything new, we are having to adapt a few ways of working to ensure that everything will run smoothly, but we hope that you are all enjoying meeting in person in our new surroundings.

We will continue to abide by any National or Local restrictions due to Covid-19 and will revert to Zoom lectures, should this prove necessary.  Any updates and/or changes to the Programme will be shown on this website and communicated via MailChimp emails, so we recommend that you supply an email address to the Membership Secretary and add the taschestermembership[at]gmail.com address to your contacts.  Please use this email address to contact Jenny Rogers, if you have any queries about attending lectures.
