About the event

Gaelic singer and composer Rachel Walker will bring the story of the Brooch of Lorn to life through music and song in an evening of entertainment. Part of the International Clan MacDougall Gathering 2019. With stories dating back to the 12th century and King Robert the Bruce, the brooch weaves its way in and out of the fate and fortunes of the Clan MacDougall. 

Rachel will be joined by highland illustrator Maureen Shaw, who will narrate and illustrate the story of the Brooch and MacDougall Clan, with original artworks and photographs. 

This piece was initially supported and enabled by Dunollie Museum, Castle & Grounds as part of “Fasanta: Festival of Textiles and Fashion” in 2016. Creation of Rachel's performance included research from Dunollie’s archives, which hold much of the fascinating history behind the beautiful Brooch which is one of the most iconic assets within Dunollie’s ancient collections.
