Welcome to The Arts Society Chester
Updated Special announcement : The Arts Society Chester arrangements during Covid-19
-----
Welcome to the Arts Society Chester! We host monthly lectures on a wide range of topics relating to the Arts, normally meeting at Chester Zoo Lecture Theatre on the third Tuesday of the month from September to June.
During the Covid-19 pandemic our Lecture programme will be online only, starting at 11:00am. For copyright reasons it is only possible to view the lecture "live", so there is no afternoon session at present. If we have your e-mail address, links will be sent to you before each lecture. Please contact Jenny Rogers, the membership secretary, on taschestermembership@gmail.com for further information.
Our on-line Lectures for the first half of 2021 will be
19 January - Susan Kay-Williams
Painting with a Needle: 18th Century Embroidery for Gentlemen and Botanists
16 February - Dr Diane Davis
The Magnificent Maya - Fact and Fantasy
