To celebrate its 20th anniversary at Dumfries, the University of Glasgow's School of Interdisciplinary Studies has teamed up with Wigtown Festival Company for a Day of Curiosity, in partnership with A Year of Conversation.
A Day of Curiosity offers inspiration to all, with a day of micro talks from the insatiably inquisitive staff of the School of Interdisciplinary Studies, for an opportunity to listen and take part in discussions about a wide range of topics from resilience and medicalisation to the secrets and stories of rivers and what it was like to be a cow in early modern Britain. For more information and to book tickets, contact the Wigtown Book Festival.
