Events and Trips
We try to arrange a programme of monthly trips and events for Friends. The following will be updated as details are known. Trips are usually held mid-week (i.e. Tuesday to Thursday), whereas Talks are mostly on Mondays when the Museum is closed. Suggestions for venues are welcomed by e-mailing Trips@FSMA.uk
NEW – We have introduced an on-line booking facility to make it easier for you to reserve your place. You will be able to select the event and receive an e-mail confirmation and reminder. If you have any comments / difficulties with this (and not about the event), please e-mail david@fsma.uk
