Welcome back to the all-ability non-selective

West Oxford Academy

The academy meets at WOCA on Tuesday evenings at 8:15pm. 
Tickets are £3 or all six talks for £12.

Each session consists of a 20-30 minute talk by a local resident, followed by questions and informal discussion over a glass of wine. The whole thing will only last an hour. This is a wonderful chance to find out about a wide range of topics and meet new people. You are encouraged to sign-up for all the talks - and to find out why subjects you know little or nothing about are fascinating for the speaker.
