In this talk join Jackie Sangster, Learning Manager, upon on a tour of Scotland in the 1930s, using HES Archives to explore all things Deco.
We’ll admire the best Moderne buildings which embraced the style, lounge at the lido, take some streamlined transport here & there; and wonder at the cinema.
We’ll conclude our long look at this stylish decade; with a visit to The Empire Exhibition of 1938, perhaps the epitome of the era?
After the talk there will be an opportunity to view archive material related to this fascinating subject.
