National Tartan Day Celebration

It’s time to pull that plaid wool shirt out from the depths of your closet for the St. Andrews Society of the Inland Northwest’s National Tartan Day Celebration! Celebrating all things Scottish heritage, attendees can learn about the rich tapestry of Scottish culture, including the significance of the tartan pattern. The event also includes weaving demonstrations, poetry readings, bagpipe performances and, of course, traditional Scottish dancing. Find out how the Scottish interacted with the Vikings and how their historic weaponry has left a lasting impact on American military traditions. Enjoy some traditional food and drink, and a day filled with entertaining, educational information about Scotland’s vibrant past and modern-day society.
