General Information About the
Society:
The St. David's Welsh Society of the Capital District is a group of
individuals who are interested in Welsh language, history, arts and/or
culture. The society takes it name from Saint David, patron saint of
Wales, who was a sixth-century monk credited with bringing Christianity
to Wales. In fact, a large medieval monastery in south Wales bears his
name and is now a major tourist attraction.
Membership:
Annual membership in the Albany St. David's Welsh Society is open to
all persons interested in any aspect of Welsh culture, and is
especially appealing to persons of Welsh ancestry. (See the membership
info page for more details about how to become a member.)
Events:
Main society events are held each year, as described on our Upcoming
Events page. Our activities are open to all persons; one does not have
to be of Welsh heritage to participate in our organization!
