Linnaean Programs
Programs range from popular to technical. Guest speakers come from various institutions
and their lectures are often illustrated with slides. There is a dinner with the speaker before
the program.

Linnaean Meetings
The regular meetings of the Linnaean Society are held on the second and fourth Tuesdays
of each month from September through May at 7:30 p.m. at the American Museum of
Natural History, Central Park West at 79th Street. (Enter by the ground level drive.) The
annual dinner, followed by the annual meeting and election of officers, is held during the
second week of March. During June, July, and August, informal meetings are held on the
third Tuesday at 7:30 p.m.
