Enjoy a series of informative sessions designed for both beginners and experienced researchers. Learn how to begin or expand your Scottish genealogy research. Discover how tartans connect to specific regions and families, and how their colors and patterns have evolved over time to reflect changing history and tradition.

Guests will also experience a live demonstration on how to pleat and fold a Great Kilt, offering a hands-on look at traditional Highland dress and craftsmanship.

Whether you’re researching your ancestry or simply curious about Scottish history, this program offers a welcoming space to learn, explore, and connect.
