Worthing Philharmonic Orchestra Concert

Worthing Philharmonic Orchestra, Worthing

The WPO welcomes rising-star pianist Eden Agranat Meged, winner of the Coulsdon and Purley Festival Concerto Prize, to play César Franck’s ‘Variations Symphoniques’ and Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 27 in B-flat, the last written by the composer for this instrument.
The programme concludes with Parry’s Symphony No. 3 (‘The English’). In recent years, there has been a resurgence of interest in Parry’s symphonies, and the WPO is delighted to bring this spirited and sunny work to Worthing. Its final movement takes the form of a set of variations on an invented English folk theme.

Relief of the Poor in 19th Century Sussex – a talk by Dr Mary Rudling

Rustington Heritage Association, Rustington

This illustrated talk looks at the support which the poor received in 19th-century Sussex - in and out of the workhouse. The 1834 Poor Law Amendment Act was described by one contemporary commentator as “a measure of extreme harshness and cruelty” and Dr Rudling will compare the support received before and after the Act, with details of individual relief recipients and officials.
Entry to the talk is free for paid-up members of Rustington Heritage Association. Visitors £5 (cash only) payable at the door. All admissions subject to availability of seats on arrival. Why not become a member? Just £15 per person per annum for free entry to all our talks in 2026.

The Arts Society Arun Monthly Talk: Decoding Contemporary Art

The Arts Society Arun, Rustington

Our talk this month is by Jackie Klein. Many of us find contemporary art challenging, strange, provocative or downright silly. This lecture unravels the step changes in art since the 1870s, exploring how we got from impressionist paintings to the interactive, immersive, ephemeral, and postmodern art of today.
Doors open 9.30am. Everyone welcome. Guests £7 on the door. Coffee & biscuits available. Meetings are held on the third Tuesday of the month. For more information, please email [email protected]
