To coincide with our exhibition exploring the Scottish Witch Trials, join us for an afternoon of delving into surprising stories from the 16th and 17th centuries, trying your hand at historic herbal recipes, making your own rowan cross or charm and doing it all over tea (or coffee!) and cake. A relaxing creative workshop for adults.
