About the event
The Society is planning to refurbish a building in the heart of Edinburgh, acting as the Society’s new home and as a public space for everyone to explore Scotland’s heritage.
We want to make it possible for everyone to visit the Hub in the future – in person or online – so we need to design it correctly from the beginning. You’re invited to be part of the design team to ensure we get it right.
This event will be an opportunity for you to shape the plans for the building to be as inclusive and welcoming as possible.
The event is organised and hosted by Horizons Research who are working with the Society to widen participation in the development of the Hub.
What we'll be doing on the day
We’ll share plans for the Hub and details of the current engagement project
You’ll see a virtual tour of the building that will become the Hub
You’ll have an opportunity to share your ideas for the space and discuss what the Hub could offer your own organisation as well as the wider sector
