The LWV of Moscow meets from September to May on Wednesday from 12 noon to 1 PM. Meeting venue is usually the Fiske Community Room in the 1912 Center located at 412 East Third Street (across from High School) in Moscow. Guests are welcome. Following the program presentations, questions from the audience are encouraged. Check the schedule below for location, topics and guests--and bring your lunch, as we are very informal during our meetings.
