SUMMARY:Heritage Open Days
DESCRIPTION:Heritage Open Days is England’s largest festival of history and culture\, involving thousands of local volunteers and organisations. Every year for 10 days in September it brings people together to celebrate their heritage\, community and history. Stories are told\, traditions explored\, and histories brought to life. It’s offers the public a chance to see hidden places and try out new experiences – and it’s all FREE. \nFrom working lives to cherished rituals\, many events will focus in on this year’s festival theme\, ‘Everyday Histories’ presented by leading family history website Findmypast. You are invited to explore the varied and often overlooked stories of ordinary working people and their daily lives. From factory floors\, workhouses and high streets to kitchens\, schools\, and community centres\, this theme shines a light on working-class voices\, local superheroes and the part-of-the-furniture places that have quietly shaped England’s heritage. \nFind out what’s on at https://www.heritageopendays.org.uk/whats-on.html
