Athenaeum Club Members

I have information that the following person was a member of the Athenaeum Club. Austen St. Barbe Harrison (1891 – 1976) was a British architect, whose works included Nuffield College, Oxford and the Rockefeller Museum, Jerusalem. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austen_Harrison —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.167.61.186 (talk) 17:54, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Athenaeum today

The information and sources used are very history focused. I would like more information about how the Athenaeum Club works today. What do contemporary members tend to do in there? Just meet and chat? Are there organised lectures or other events for members? How do people become members? Is there a member fee? Can members of the public visit and, if so, for what? Dining? Entertainment? To use the library? Do visitors pay? Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.138.7.35 (talk) 17:31, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Meet and chat, have guests for lunch or tea, use the library. There are also lectures and other events organised. Membership is by election, having a proposer and seconder among the existing membership of the club. In practice one must have achieved a certain level of notoriety or be well-acquainted with a number of existing members. There are dues. The club is not open to the public. However, some events (lectures, dinners) that take place in the clubhouse may be open to non-members. --194.98.58.121 (talk) 13:23, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
