Multimedia Exhibition
The heritage shared by Poland and
Scotland is a visible and integral part
of Scotland’s historic environment,
dating as far back as the 16th century.
Traces of this connection are evident
all over Scotland. This showcase will
be an informative and enriching event
that will give you an opportunity to
hear the stories of the places, events
and people that shaped the history we
are privileged to share.
Stories, People, Places Polish Scottish Heritage Multimedia Showcase
The multimedia exhibition consists of
four short documentaries that present
selected people, places and events
that linked Poland and Scotland
throughout the centuries (directed
by Pawel Nuckowski and Robert
Motyka), as well as two photographic
exhibitions (see the next page for
more details).
