  • Description

Worthing Museum presents the Autumn Lecture Series.

Our hugely popular lecture series returns on Thursday evenings this October to December.

An intimate season of talks with our Archaeology Curator James Sainsbury and guest speakers. Explore a wide range of subjects from Sussex in the Stone and Bronze ages, Worthing at War 1939-1945 and Highdown & Saxon Sussex. This year due to high demand we have the return of A Victorian Naval Odyssey: John Palmer and his unique log book revealed, as well as The Story of Cissbury Ring. Plus brand new talks on topics such as Roman Worthing & Surrounds and Harry Peulevé: Worthing’s War-time Spy.

Sussex in the Stone Ages

Join us for a journey through 500,000 years of hominids in Sussex. From Homo Heidelbergensis at Boxgrove to hunter-gatherers on Worthing’s shore and beyond, this lecture covers the development of the earliest groups to make Sussex their home.

Ticket price includes a glass of wine or tea/coffee.
