Welcome to the website of The Arts Society Wimbledon

Charity number: 1209911

Our objective, through lectures and visits, is to broaden knowledge and enjoyment of the arts, sharing the experience with like-minded people in a friendly and sociable setting. The membership fee includes:

- A programme of 10 illustrated lectures by expert speakers. Subjects can include Painting, Architecture, Gardens, Cultural history, Technology, Design and the broader Arts at home or abroad.  

- Lectures, which are held on the second Wednesday of each month at 8:00pm (except July and August). (Coffee and biscuits served from 7:30pm.) These are also available to members via Zoom. 

- Guided visits to art galleries, museums, places of special historic or architectural interest and longer trips in the UK or abroad (with an additional cost).

- All members will receive a copy of The Arts Society Review three times a year. In addition, each year we hold a new members coffee morning 

Details of all of the above can be found in these web pages. We hope that you find this information helpful and enjoy reading about our programmes.
