Monday 22nd August: The MacDonald of Glencoe Tartan

Lecture at West Highland Museum and online – Monday 22nd August, 5pm.
 
This talk by tartan expert Peter MacDonald will examine the original specimen of the Glencoe tartan in the West Highland Museum Collection.  The tartan will be on display for you to see!
 
Peter will compare the tartan with similar old patterns from Lochaber and the West Coast of Scotland, and explore how the base design has been the basis for a number of later clan tartans. It is sure to be a fascinating event, and we hope you can join us!
 
The event is being held in person at the West Highland Museum and also being streamed live online via Zoom.
Tickets are £5 for the in-person event and £3.50 for the online event.
