The new Council of the RAS is pleased to announce the resurrection of the RAS Annual Soiree. The first one was held in December 1938. Refreshments and sandwiches were served, a ‘motion picture’ was shown and a lecture was delivered on the ‘People of the Philippines.’
There will be no lecture this time around but we hope that the occasion will provide a great chance for you to meet fellow members for a fun evening in convivial surroundings. However, we will be screening a movie. And a very, very special one too! As a backdrop to the evening there will be a private screening of clips, largely shot in Shanghai in the 1930s, taken by the legendary Sir Victor Sassoon. Refreshments, sandwiches, finger food and canapés will also be on offer at this Filipino-managed venue.
Please join us on this historic occasion!
