The Scottish Maritime Museum’s online publishing partner Grey Hill will host an online talk with Ayrshire historian Dane Love.
During the online event, Dane, who has written over thirty books, many with a particular focus on Ayrshire, will chart Ayr’s history from the medieval period when it developed into a busy port.
In the live unscripted interview, Dane, who lives in the Ayrshire countryside, will also chat about his book Ayr Stories and answer audience questions.
A regular visitor to the Scottish Maritime Museum, Dane will also have a stand at the Museum’s Winter Market which takes place from Friday 20 (evening) through to Sunday 22 November.
Eva Bukowska, Exhibitions and Events Officer at the Scottish Maritime Museum, says:
“We’re delighted to support our friends at Grey Hill in promoting what promises to be a relaxed online evening with one of Scotland’s best-known local historians.
“So many of Ayrshire’s stories are tied to the sea so it’s great opportunity to hear more about Ayr’s maritime history as well as little-known local stories about the characters who shaped the town.”
Grey Hill is a Scottish online bookshop and events platform.
Tickets for the online event cost £12. This includes the live online interview, opportunity to send in questions and download the Ayr Stories e-book.
