Explore our local heritage at three events coming up at Worksop Library.
Workshop: ‘Home Cooked Heritage’
Saturday 9th March, 10.00am to 12.30pm
Working creatively with artists and experts, explore the heritage of recipes and food from the past unearthed from Nottinghamshire Archives. Artworks created will be shared in an exhibition across Inspire Libraries galleries and eventually be added back into Nottinghamshire Archives for future historians to discover! Tickets for the workshop are £5.00 (or concessions free). Further details/booking information can be found at www.inspireculture.org.uk/homecookedheritage or call 01623 677200 to book your place.

Talk: ‘A Virtual Tour of Worksop’ by Malcolm Dolby
Thursday 4th April, 7.30pm
Many heritage features survive in modern Worksop; some readily visible but others either completely hidden from view or difficult to spot. Malcolm Dolby’s presentation will take you around Worksop on a visual ‘walking tour’. Come along to see what he’s discovered about the sites and sights along the way. This is expected to be a very popular talk so please book early to avoid disappointment. Tickets are £3.00 and can be purchased in advance from Worksop Library, by calling 01623 677200, or via Eventbrite — please search Heritage Events on the Inspire website www.inspireculture.org.uk. Doors open at 7.00pm and refreshments will be available to purchase from the bar. Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult.
