Following the launch event to the project - A Winter Salon, taking place over the weekend of 1st-3rd December 2017, we are moving on to the research phase.
We are calling out to people in and around Hastings, or those who may have moved away or have family nearby - anyone who may have any stories, images, anecdotes, snippets of information or recollections of West Street to get in touch with us. We will be conducting interviews over the next few months and on Tuesday 27th February will hold a free oral history training workshop at the Hastings History House. This will be held by Nicola Benge who runs the Strike a Light heritage group based in Brighton.
If you would like more information or would like to take part please contact Lorna: lornacrabbe@gmail.com
We chose the weekend of 1st-3rd December for our Winter salon because it ties-in with the annual Old Town Christmas celebrations. This year the Spirit of Christmas on Fri 1st and Sat 2nd includes a Santa parade & grotto, live music and late night openings at many of the Old Town shops.
