Meon Valley Arts Society
Welcome to the Meon Valley Arts Society. The aim of the Society is to provide an
appreciation and study of the decorative and fine arts.
We have eleven lectures a year on subjects such as architecture, furniture, music, ceramics, paintings and many other
varied topics.
Lectures take place on the second Tuesday of every month except August.
In addition to the lectures several visits a year are arranged to historic houses, museums and galleries,
theatres, concerts and other places of interest.
We also organize two study days.
Next lecture: Tuesday 14 January 2025
