Highland Heritage Day

This is an opportunity to bring many, hopefully most, of the Highland’s heritage organisations together. We rarely get a chance to meet up, to promote what we do, and to share ideas and concerns. There are many issues and concerns for heritage groups at present. We want to hear your experience and help find some solutions.

Who is it for? Everyone working or volunteering in the Highland heritage sector! That means museums, archives, heritage centres, heritage groups, individual researchers, community trusts – if you work/volunteer to preserve and celebrate the heritage of the Highlands then you are welcome. Our aims for the day are to bring the whole sector together to celebrate the work being done, meet and learn from each other and explore the potential for stronger collaborative working at all levels.

Do bring a display or have a table about your organisation so others know what you are about. We want the day to be fun, inspiring and informative! We have arranged workshops on a number of topics. Please select which ones you intend to attend when booking.

Thanks for funding from Historic Environment Scotland, Highland Council and ARCH, the day will be free to attend and will include lunch.
