Join Curator Anna MacQuarrie and Outreach & Access Manager Diana Morton who will be discussing our latest virtual exhibition, Life on the Forth. They will be sharing some of their personal insights and experiences of working with collections related to Edinburgh’s coastal communities. From Portobello in the east to South Queensferry in the west, this event will reveal how our museum objects reflect the history and heritage of the Forth.

This talk is part of the Auld Reekie Retold collections inventory project.
