FREE winter workshops program

Don't miss out on the program of FREE community heritage workshops coming this winter from Garnock Connections.

The workshops will cover a wide range of topics from taking oral histories and interpreting finds to making videos and designing exhibitions. The program will be delivered by our expert partners at DigVentures and Rathmell Archaeology. To keep you as safe as possible the workshops will initially be delivered online with options to attend the live stream or to catch up with the recorded version at a time of your choosing. As soon as it is safe to do so, we will return to delivering workshops live and in person giving you a chance to get hands on with the cultural heritage of the area.
