Manchester Histories Festival

[andydavies]

As posted on the "book recommendation" thread: a Manchester Histories Festival is to be staged at the Town Hall on Saturday, 21 March. There will be a series of lectures - all for free - and there is a varied and interesting programme here:

If you are particularly keen on one or more of the talks, you can book tickets from the same site. There will be lots more happening on the day, including displays, guided walks, etc. Should be a good day!

Hi Heather

I have applied for tickets to :-

Andrew Davies - The Gangs of Manchester: The Story of the Scuttlers
Keith Warrender - Underground Manchester Underground Manchester: Secrets of the City Revealed

Hi,

I have booked for the manchester medicine one. Have sent a message to Salford Lass so will wait to hear from her.

Maybe no one else is going or they want to remain incognito?
