“FIRST WEDNESDAYS” Luncheon Programs -

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is a series of monthly luncheon programs open to interested individuals who reside in, or who happen to be in, the Richmond  area on the first Wednesday of each month. The typical schedule is a light fellowship lunch at 12:00 noon (suggested $5 contribution for lunch) followed by a program from 1:00 to 1:30 featuring speakers and resource people from the Quaker and Richmond community. (The exact schedule may vary from month to month to accommodate the schedules of guest speakers). Interested persons are welcome to come for the program even if coming for lunch is not possible.
