You might have heard of Patrick Geddes in association with Riddle’s Court, but what of the women connected to this 400 year old merchant’s house?

The Women of Riddle’s Court, Thursday 24th October, 5.30pm to 7pm, 16+

 

Hear about the lives of women gardeners, poets, painters and social campaigners such as Anne Morton Geddes, from Sheila Masson of the Scottish Historic Buildings Trust. There’ll also be a chance to see and listen to creative responses to Riddle’s Court from attendees of recent creative writing workshops with Nadine Aisha Jassat.
