ADFAS Bowral & District provides for its members a yearly programme of illustrated lectures given by overseas and Australian lecturers chosen for their communication skills and expert knowledge in their fields.
Occasional other activities are also held when topics can be examined in more detail. An excursion to an event or place of interest to members is organised each year and a very popular Film Night is held during August.
Volunteers to assist with local projects, e.g. Church Recording and committee duties are always most welcome. Please contact a member of the Committee for further information.
ADFAS Bowral & District was formed in 1988. See History
of ADFAS Bowral & Districts.
