The Olivia Rodham Memorial Summer Lecture Series is a wonderful instructive yet entertaining (or is it entertaining yet instructive?) program featuring speakers from Nelson, (or occasionally not, but with strong Nelson connections). Each presentation is preceded by a few minutes of music, and followed by a social in library, where you can enjoy refreshments, visit with your neighbors, and ask more questions of the speaker.
