Why You Should Join JASNA-SW (it's only $15)In addition to discounted admission to our already affordable Spring and Winter Events, your $15 membership:
* allows our Region to contribute to the restoration of Jane Austen's house and church at Chawton. * provides food and drink to our holiday season reading group teas. * allows us to keep our biannual meetings affordable. For example, our last two meetings cost 30% and 55% more, respectively, than what they brought in. Therefore, your $15 membership helped cover the cost of bringing in speakers, the food, and the venues. * helps cover miscellaneous costs, such as printing and mailing out our newsletters and web hosting for this site. In addition, members are the first to hear about special screenings and other Austen-related events. Some of these events are open to JASNA-SW members only. Membership in JASNA-SW is only $15 per year. Please consider joining today. Click on the Join/Contact tab above.
