An October visit to Cambridge by members didn't disappoint.
The Arts Society Wensum
Welcome to the Arts Society Wensum.
Our Society normally holds nine monthly lectures (September-November; January- June) and a Christmas lecture. The lectures are held at the Assembly House in the centre of Norwich, which is easily accessible by bus. There are also ample car parks nearby. Coffee is available before the start of the lecture.
We also arrange Special Interest Days and day visits to places of interest. Each autumn we organise a 3-4 day visit to another UK destination. Our visit for 2024 was to Glyndebourne, and other places of interest nearby. See the News item here.
We also support young arts locally and have recently completed our programme of events for the forthcoming year (see the Events links below).
Membership of Arts Society Wensum is currently full. But we do maintain a waiting list. If you are interested in joining it, please contact our Membership Secretary (details given below).
