The Walmsley Society was formed in 1985 for admirers of the late Robin Hood's Bay writer Leo Walmsley.
Leo's father James Ulric Walmsley was the local artist and photographer from the 1890s until his death in 1950, recording the village and coast in his paintings and picture postcards.
Now the Walmsley Society is celebrating its 25th anniversary with a day of events tomorrow at Fylingdales Village Hall to commemorate the work of the two men.
From 2.15pm there will be an exhibition of some of the many artefacts collected by the group over the years with displays of Ulric Walmsley's original paintings and watercolour postcards depicting the village in Edwardian days.
There will also be books for sale by Leo with an example of the collapsible lobster pot he invented while living there as an inshore fisherman in the 1930s.
A brand new edition of Leo's book based upon his childhood in 'Bay at the end of the Vicotian era called Sound of the Sea will be launched at the event.
During the convention, the society's reading team will present Leo, a Man with So Many Loves which will inform people about his remarkable life story using extracts from his own books about Robin Hood's Bay.
Leo's son, Dr Sean Walmsley is travelling from America to be in Robin Hood's Bay for the convention and will be one of the narrators.
Admission to the convention is free and light refrehsments will be on sale.
At 7.30pm, Fylingdales Village Hall will be tranformed into a cinema for the presentation of an evening of nostalgic local films, memories of Robin Hood's Bay and its environs in earlier days.
These will include a look at Fylingthorpe in 1955 while the main feature will be the screening of the 1999 re-enactment of the 1881 rescue of the brig Visiter, when the Whitby lifeboat was manhandled through snowdrifts all the way from Whitby to Robin Hood's Bay to effect a heroic rescue.
Admission to the evening is free with a retiring collection in aid of the RNLI.
