Falkirk Council's Cultural Services team is inviting members of the public to share their views on the future direction of Callendar House.

Over a cup of tea or coffee, a discussion session will be held from 12:30pm to 1:30pm in the Queens Room at Callendar House on Wednesday 13 November 2024.

The one-hour conversation aims to gather ideas on how to refresh the art and history exhibitions and improve future activities and projects at the house.

The discussion will explore what makes Callendar House special for visitors, what stories from local history are most fascinating, and what might encourage people to visit in the future.

The public’s input will also help shape plans to ensure the house continues to connect meaningfully with the community and provides an engaging and positive visitor experience.

Helen Rashad, Team Leader for Cultural Services said:

"We want to make sure Callendar House is a place that people of all ages feel drawn to, where they can connect with our shared history in engaging and meaningful ways. Hearing directly from our community is the best way to ensure we're telling the stories that matter most. Our team want to continue offering a welcoming experience for all visitors while developing new ways to share the heritage of the Falkirk area and this event will allow us to learn more about what people want from the house."
