From shipwrecks to shoes, fishing to flares, trawlers to travelers… let women’s artworks at the Scottish Maritime Museum tempt you to write seafaring stories and poems of your own.

Alongside creative writing exercises and a guided tour of the artworks, the visit will also incorporate a tour of a shipyard worker’s tenement flat from 100 years ago. We’ll also have time for tea in the Museum’s café but bring your lunch to eat on the train!

This is a great opportunity to see the Scottish Maritime Museum’s new art collection in its inaugural exhibition.
