Join Julie McKiernan in a fun creative writing workshop inspired by the Lindsay clan’s coat of arms and the three ancient titles earned by members of the former family of Haigh Hall. This FREE friendly and accessible workshop will look at the Lindsay’s legacy and the symbolism of their coat of arms and how they can inspire our own stories, scripts or poems.
