Open meetings are usually held on the last Friday of most months. All of the meetings take place in the Main Hall, The Merse, Lochancroft Lane, Wigtown. Doors open at 10:30 for refreshments and the talk starts at 11:00. The forthcoming meetings and other events are listed below. Click on the title of any event to see any extra details we have.
