Celebrating Outwith | The Grieves in Whalsay: people, place and memory

Saturday, June 20th 2026 11:00am - 1:00pm
Shetland Museum and Archives
Join us for a panel discussion led by Dr Colin McIlroy exploring Christopher and Valda Grieve’s years in Whalsay. Bringing together voices from the Whalsay History Group and Shetland Museum and Archives, the conversation will delve into daily life on the island and the relationships the Grieve family built during their time in Shetland. Drawing on local knowledge, archival insight, and shared stories, this session offers a chance to see a more personal side of the Grieves - rooted in place, community, and the landscape that surrounded them.
