The Saturday Heritage Fairs aim to provide a meeting point for individuals and small groups from the new Independent Heritage Network who are developing heritage projects based on their own interests.

Perhaps you are a community group in the early stages of developing a heritage collection? Are you thinking of growing an existing collection? Or are you thinking about turning your collection into a registered small independent museum? If yes, the Saturday Heritage Fairs are here to support you!

The Saturday Heritage Fairs are also open to the public so that you can find out more about the independent heritage projects being developed across Leicester. Why not come along to share your own lived experience? They’ll be lots of engaging talks, workshops, displays and more too. We know some of our learners will love these events!

Confirmed exhibitors include, At Risk of War Memorials Project, Braunstone History Group, Leicestershire & Rutland Family History Society and many more! You can find full information on Doc Media Centre's website.
