SUMMARY:Architecture Group Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Architecture Group meeting: Wednesday 24 May\, 5:30pm in the Library.  \nThe revamp of the Athenaeum Architectural Group comes at a most interesting moment. After decades of decline and neglect\, followed by our culture-led renaissance\, the city region is now seeing major investment and fundamental change in its built-environment. From the new container port to the Mersey Gateway Bridge\, to the redefinition of our raison d’etre and growth in the visitor economy\, change is in the air. “Architecture” in our city is no longer just looking back to past glories! There are exciting times ahead! \nThe Athenaeum was founded 220 years ago as a sanctuary for men of affairs to consider contemporary challenges in changing times – “plus ça change\, plus c’est la même chose” – albeit for our gender plurality! \n  \nSo\, don’t miss the opening event at which we intend to determine future activities followed by dinner with a keynote address by Suzy Jones Director of the Royal Institute of British Architecture (RIBA) North West. \n  \nIf you’re not there\, you might get talked about! \n

SUMMARY:Potions and Pills: A Brief History of Poisoning
DESCRIPTION:There has always been a fascination with poisons; a toadstool that can kill\, or Shakespearian potions for murder and suicide. Prof Francesco Falciani from the University of Liverpool will take us on a journey from man’s earliest “experiments” with poisons (usually on their enemies or less favoured relatives!)\, through how industrial and social revolutions required a scientific approach to ensure better human health\, to the possibilities of a future of safe\, tailor-made drugs and products. The Universities in Liverpool are at the forefront of radical new research that is improving safety and removing the need for animal experimentation in these areas. Our speaker\, Prof Falciani\, is in high demand across the world for his expertise applying modern molecular biological approaches to the ancient study of toxicology. This talk will start in the past\, but certainly end up with a glimpse of the future.\nPlease note: We intend to start the talk at 6.30pm and have the supper after the talk. This is in response to Proprietors wanting earlier events and\, of course\, those needing to get back to Wirral by train…

SUMMARY:Film Group Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday 13th December\, 2015 – “The Wizard of Oz”: Nobody sings “Over the Rainbow” like Judy Garland. Made in 1939\, it narrowly lost out to “Gone with the Wind” for best picture. Made in early telecolor\, over seventy years later the film is still a delight to adults and children alike. Dorothy from Kansas (Garland) is scooped up by a tornado with her dog Toto and set down in a strange new world. To get home again\, she embarks on a journey with three companions to the emerald City of Oz to ask the wizard who rules the City for his help. (And for those who have read “Wicked”\, the Witch of the West takes on a different aspect.)

SUMMARY:'Joseph Banks - Australia's First Botanist'
DESCRIPTION:Andrew Sankey will tell us the fascinating story of Sir Joseph Banks\, a Lincolnshire man\, has become known as the Father of Australia for his connections with the country. After travelling around the world with Captain Cook he set up a scientific garden at Kew that became the greatest botanical garden in the world and introduced some 7\,000 new plants to Britain. He transferred bread fruit to the West Indies\, became President of the Royal Society\, was a founder member of the Horticultural Society\, and even sent plant hunters to China. Joseph Banks was an explorer\, botanist and a great man of science who has the Australia family of plants Banksia named after him. It is a remarkable tale of ingenuity\, fortitude and new plants\, and not without links to our own library collection. \nAndrew Sankey went into secondary school teaching and became Head of Graphics before starting a garden design and landscaping business in Lincolnshire. He created a cottage garden open under the NGS and became Chairman of the Lincolnshire branch of the Cottage Garden Society. He also ran a small nursery specialising in plants for dry sun/shade positions. He was asked to give a talk on the history of the cottage garden and since then has lectured widely on a range of gardening subjects\, both throughout Britain and the USA \n  \nMenu  \nMain Course \nSteamed fillet of Plaice\, salmon and tomato mousse\, courgette flowers and tarragon cream \nDessert  \nTiramisu
