Scotland's Year of Stories 2022 is our opportunity to spotlight, celebrate and promote the wealth of stories inspired by, written, or created in Scotland. From icons of literature to local tales, the year aims to encourage locals and visitors to experience a diversity of voices, take part in events and explore the places, people and cultures connected to all forms of our stories, past and present.
We’re delighted that over 300 people signed up to our Scotland’s Year of Stories 2022 industry webinar, which took place on the afternoon of Thursday 9 September.
