A slightly last-minute reminder that DJ Funky R is with us this Saturday.

Expect soulful rhythms, groovy sounds, cocktails, sourdough pizza from Back Yard Pizza and the usual good company.

No tickets, no fuss — just come along.

A few photos from Saturday daytime at socialbar — where Saxmundham hosted the Arts Festival. It was a great day for us, we got to see so many lovely people and see our neighbours busy too! We wish every Saturday could be like this in Saxmundham.

Thank you to The Art Station for organising this event! See you all again next year 🤞

What an incredible night! As part of the Saxmundham Arts Festival, we hosted our very first (sold-out) stand-up comedy night in partnership with Glass Eye Comedy.

​Thank you to our brilliant lineup —compère Louie Green, George S.V., Heman ☯️ 🎤, Alex Freimuller, Becky Mathieson, and, of course, our fantastic headliner, John Mann.

​You were an amazing audience, Saxmundham! This is just the beginning... 🎤✨

Our monthly Games Night returns on Wednesday 17 June 🎲

Come on your own or bring some friends — either way, there’ll be plenty of board games, good company, wine, craft beer and snacks waiting for you.

Bring a favourite board game or pick something from our collection, with our resident GJs (Game Jockeys) on hand to help you join a table or learn something new.

No booking needed — just drop in, relax and play.

Beyond Fear & Tribalism: Conscience in Uncertain Times is an evening of presentation and discussion with Ezra Hewing, head of education from Suffolk Mind.

In a world shaped by division, outrage and blind certainty, how do we learn to better understand ourselves — and each other?

Join us on Tuesday 16 June as we explore conscience, moral development, belonging, bias and navigating fraught relationships in increasingly polarised times.

In the spotlight is socialbar friend and neighbour, The Saxmundham Community Fridge.

Every Monday and Friday morning from 10.30 am behind the Old Bank building, the Community Fridge distributes free food near or past its "best by" date to anyone who turns up. Led by a brilliant team of volunteers, SAXCF not only fights food waste but is also a haven for those seeking community and in-person connection.

Another of the many reasons we’re proud to call Saxmundham home 🏠.

Another great book club last night.

Thoughtful discussion and debate ensued around the unreliable narrator, which cropped up once again in our analysis of "Daisy Bates in the Desert".

And, ​looking around the room, we’d love to bring more diverse perspectives to our discussions. Fellows, if you've been thinking about joining our book club, consider this your open invite! (Of course, women are also always welcome.)

Swipe to the end to discover next month’s book, ready for Wednesday 1 July 📚. Discussion prompts welcomed.
