About this Event

The talk follows the formation of one school from the medieval educational set up in Dundee and the change from religious influence to political and later independent control.

Doors open from 12.30pm at the Glasite Hall on King Street. Please enter from the churchyard or the east side of the building (the lift is available from both sides but the accessible door is at the east entrance). You DO NOT need to bring a printed ticket.

Tea, coffee and biscuits will be available to purchase before the talk. Entry to the talks are free but if you would like to make a donation towards the hire of the hall, there will be a donations tin available.

If you need to cancel for any reason, please do so via Eventbrite or email us on [email protected].
