Accused Witches and the Power of Words

Join us for a unique Book Week Scotland event as we explore Dalkeith’s dark part in the Scottish witch trials of the 17th Century.

We will examine words used about witches through the centuries and up to the current time and reflect on and share our own understandings using our own words. We will also have the chance to speak with local artists who created the panels depicting some of those executed as witches in Dalkeith.
