About this event

The Campsie Calico Printing Industry

In this fascinating talk, textile artist and historian, Suzanne Marshall-Smith, will share her research on the historic calico printing industry which thrived in Lennoxtown and Milton of Campsie between 1785 and 1929. This textile industry shaped and enriched local communities, until its eventual demise in the early 20th century.
