The Heliconian Literary Lecture Series runs from September
2008 until May 2009.
This popular series has been described as a cross between
a traditional book club and a university course without
exams. This year it will consist of two separate series
consisting of nine two-hour sessions, each including
a lecture, question period and refreshments. The doors
will open at 7:00 p.m. with lecture beginning at 7:30.
Subscription cost for non-members of the Heliconian
Club is $140, (members of the Heliconian Club $110).
You will be sent tickets for each evening of the series
you select and all tickets will be mailed in August.
