Deconstructing Emigration: Cultural Identies

Interactive open discussion led by Dr Marjory Taylor. 

Organised by Ullapol Museum. Free. Further information and tickets from Ullapool Museum website

Part of Ullapool Museum's commemoration of the 250th Anniversary of the Sailing of The Hector from Lochbroom to Nova Scotia, Ullapool Museum, looking to deconstruct the stories surrounding the mass migration of people to Canada. 

On the 250th we welcome all the visiting diaspora to Ullapool Museum to have a bit of a get together and open discussion around cultural identities. Dr Marjory Taylor will host an open discussion with all of our visitors to see how immigration has effected our familes by asking how difficult is it to maintain a cultural heritage that is removed from the geographical homeland? How do you feel when you return to the country of your ancestors? What connects you to your ancestors?

Refreshments and Music will be provided by Ullapool Museum
