Join the Sir Ernest H Shackleton Appreciation Society and the Royal Geographical Society for a gala dinner in the Society's main hall to commemorate the birth of Ernest Shackleton and mark the beginning of the Sir Ernest H Shackleton Appreciation Society’s biannual conference held at this year at the Society.

The dinner will have a guest speaker and represents a chance to socialise with other like-minded Antarctic enthusiasts and exclusively view Johny Midnights outstanding Endurance artworks.

Demand is expected to be high and tickets are limited to 90 for the evening.
