Manchester Histories Salons
Join us as we explore the histories of topics you are passionate about in our online Salons.
Manchester Histories Salons are fascinating hour-long discussions on the histories of topics we and you are passionate about. Our guest speakers for each salon are experts, academics, and practitioners.
Our next Salons won’t happen until later in 2024 as we start to get ready and focus on our next festival in June 2024
However, if there is a topic you find fascinating and believe deserves wider exposure please continue to tell us your ideas. Is there a person, event, or idea that you would love to know more about? If so, please let us know at info@manchesterhistories.co.uk
What do you want future Salons to focus on?
Thank you.
We look forward to getting your ideas.
