The Medway History Showcase is back in 2024 on Saturday, 5 October and is even better and bigger than last year. This unique event, the most prominent heritage gathering in North Kent, brings together all the major heritage partners alongside others that you may not have heard of but who do fantastic work in their communities. The History Showcase idea started in 2021 as part of the Institute of Historical Research’s (IHR) centenary celebrations. Since then, it has gone from strength to strength with events in Medway at the excellent Royal Engineers Museum, Gillingham, and in Canterbury and Dover.Eight accessible talks will focus on themes pertinent to Medway’s history and heritage. We will also welcome history and heritage organisations as exhibitors; twenty-six have confirmed so far, although there is room for more! Those present will be delighted to discuss their activities, and there will be plenty of time for such discussions during the day.
This is free to pre-booked ticket holders, including free access to the beautiful Royal Engineers Museum and its café facilities. The Medway History Showcase is open to all ages, especially families, making it a great day to explore what happened in the past and what it may mean for today and the future.
