    • Members meet approximately once a month to attend various cultural happenings in and around Toronto. Theatre, gallery or museum showings are among the most popular activities. One of the group leaders will notify you before each event and you will be asked whether you want to sign up for the event. Members choose only the events in which they are interested. Most events are preceded by lunch or dinner to allow for a social time before a performance or visit.
