WELCOME TO THE HASLEMERE BRANCH OF NADFAS
Haslemere DFAS was founded in 1971 and after 40 years our Society is still full of energy and enthusiasm, with nearly 300 members. Every year we have a packed programme of events and monthly lectures on a wide variey of arts topics. Lecturers are selected from the NADFAS directory and are chosen for their expert knowledge and ability to present their subject in an informal and entertaining way. In addition to the lectures, we run a series of study days and several outings a year to places of historical and artistic interest. Trips abroad are also organised on an irregular basis. |
