The Sussex Russian Society has been formed as an open co-operative.   That's to say, it's open to anybody who is interested to come along to any of the meetings, and perhaps to contribute.  There is no membership fee, so a small donation when you attend will cover the cost of each meeting.  Regulars include people who have visited Russia as students or tourists, some who have followed Russian language courses, some who have no language knowledge but are enthusiastic about Russian art, music, literature.  All are welcome!

Meetings will usually be held on the second Monday evening of each month, starting in October 2010, and the venue will normally be in Lewes.  Before the topic for the evening, meetings start with бутерброды and other light refreshments at 7.45 pm. Bring a contribution to that, if you like.
