Edinburgh 900: Salty Seas

EDINBURGH MULTICULTURAL FESTIVAL

CORNERSTONE at ST JOHN’S CHURCH PRINCES STREET

FRIDAY 31st OCTOBER from 12 – 12.45pm

As Black History Month UK is coming to an end we invite to a musical storytelling event at Cornerstone Centre Edinburgh at St John’s Episcopal Church Edinburgh on 31 October.

Join us to reflect on the courage, sacrifice and unwavering spirit of humanity as we share stories of John Edmondstone, Joseph Knight and Ann Thompson, Malvina Wells and Jack Gladstone whose lives were marked by the Slave Trade and fight for freedom while discovering the darker side of the Scottish Enlightenment.

Reserve your free tickets, supported by The City of Edinburgh Council Edinburgh 900 Civic Fund, ahead of the Friday event at:
