At least eight meetings are held each year, on the first Wednesday of the month. These are usually held in Conference Room 1 in the Darlington Centre (side entrance to the Forum Restaurant), University of Sydney, City Road. Meetings commence at 7.00 pm. Drinks are available from 6.30 pm. There is no charge for lectures and visitors are always welcome to attend General Meetings of the Society.
Reports on these lectures are often found under the abstract of the talk. Please note that it may take a few weeks for them to appear and only if someone writes it up!
Also don't forget that the Southern Highland Branch hosts excellent
lectures.
