Meet The Boston Hanse Group
As part of the Lincolnshire Local History Festival, the Boston Hanse Group will be appearing at Boston Library to shine a light on this section of the town's history.
In advance of Boston’s International Hanseatic Day celebrations on 30th May, come along and meet members of the town’s Hanse Group and learn about this European trading association from the 13th century when merchants from all over Europe visited for the Boston Fair selling their wines, furs, fish, hunting hawks and more.
Laura Hudson, one of our Transported Project Assistants, will be joining with the Hanse Group. She is also performing at the main event on the 30th May in the parade.
The festival’s artistic styling is inspired by this era of Boston’s medieval history, and there’s lots of opportunities to get involved in the free creative workshops to make the artwork for the parade.
Find out more about the Boston Hanse Day festival here and join the session at the library to find out more about the creative workshops coming up.
