How do you tell the story of family that you’ve never met?
Heather Richardson invites you to join her for a moving afternoon of memoir and making, as she tells the story of her aunt, Kathleen, whose life was cut tragically short at just 14.
Heather will share how she created this biography, which captures rural Northern Ireland in the 20th Century and in the early days of WW2. She’ll reveal how she completed her research, combining family stories with history.
On display will be the original story of Kathleen, which was sewn into a hand-embroidered Irish linen dress. Author Heather Richardson will take you on a creative journey; from stitching textile art to pulling the threads of memoir and family together.
Don’t miss this afternoon of creativity.
