Is the public free to attend these events and seminars or do you need an invitation or to be part of the society? Would love to attend if there were ever a meeting in my area to create an awesome post for my medieval history blog
ReplyDeleteHi Matt,
DeleteYes, the public can attend most of the events we post about on the site (if not, we'll make it clear). Not all the events listed are free, so please refer to the details for any attendance fee. Hope to see you at one of our lectures in the future.
