</P><P>
Inverness-based arts company Hi-Arts and higher education institution UHI are jointly hosting the sessions.
</P><P>
Hi-Arts director Richard Livingston said the idea was to give people across the Highlands and Islands an outlet for discussion and debate.
</P><P>
The first party was set up to discuss a forthcoming gathering of visual artists.
</P><P>
It is being jointly hosted by Mr Livingston and Dr Sheila Lodge, Dean of Faculty Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences at UHI.
</P><P>
Mr Livingston said because of the geography of the area it was not always possible for people to meet for dinner party-style debates "over food and a glass of wine".
</P><P>
The virtual events also follow on from lectures held in Inverness by UHI and in past delivered by academics including scientist Richard Dawkins.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/B2793800-70FD-4A0A-BAEE-625CC262F828/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
