Polish-Scottish Song Group
Description
The Polish-Scottish Song Group is a unique hub for cultural exchange between locals and city’s largest foreign-born community. Its diverse members–representing Poland and Scotland, but also many other nationalities–have performed traditional Polish and Scots songs across the North-East.
The group is hosted and coordinated by the Elphinstone Institute in partnership with local community members. The group's principal aims include (1) foster cultural exchange and dialogue between Polish residents of Aberdeen and other residents (Scottish-born or otherwise) in the City and Shire; (2) continue the Elphinstone Institute's long-standing tradition of community engagement; and (3) encourage two-way collaborations between the University and the wider North-East community.
