Virtual Event: Thursday 21 January 2021, 8pm.

ONLINE TALK BY MELANIE GIBSON-BARTON: THE LIFE OF EVA BRAUN

You may remember Melanie gave us an excellent Talk about Edith Cavell in May last year

Melanie will present the story of the woman who devoted her life to Hitler.  The material of the talk is sensitively presented in order to appeal to a wide audience.  It will convey the life story of the girl who met Adolf Hitler in a shop during the years leading up to his rise to power in Germany.

Melanie’s interest in Eva began after seeing Eva alongside Hitler in cine-film on ‘The World at War’ television programme in 1973.  While listening to the talk you can consider whether you think Eva was a victim or a contriver in her story.

The online talk will take place via Zoom so you will be able to enjoy the talk on your computer/laptop/tablet/mobile phone. The Talk will cost £2 per household. You can pay online using the buttons below (coming soon) or the link; or phone to book a place and arrange collection of payment.

The link to the Talk will be sent to you one week before 21 January and you simply use that to enter the Talk. A reminder will be sent to you 24 hours before the talk. You will be able to see and hear the presentation slides and the speaker via your screen.

Payment is non-refundable in the case of non attendance.

The AGM continues to be postponed and is more likely to be held in May 2021.  This means that the new programme will be for the 2021-22 year.

The Archives Drop In sessions in the Library on the first Friday of the month will be on hold until we have more information.  It is possible that they will not restart until next year.

Take care everyone.
