This event will focus on celebrating St Andrew’s Day by exploring other cultures and their significant poets and poems dating back centuries. We will introduce the story behind St Andrew’s Day and its significance in Scotland’s cultural history. There will be performances from local and Scottish musicians allowing people to dance and enjoy themselves through a wide variety of musical styles. The food enjoyed on the evening will include dishes of Scottish and Middle Eastern origin.This will be inspiring as it showcases how diverse communities in Scotland can appreciate and join in the celebration of such a figure. It will bring together a diverse group of people, engaging through a common theme as well as encouraging participation and collaboration. This will be achieved throughout the event and the process of organising it, since we will be relying on our partnership with other communities.
