We had a wonderful evening this week at the opening night of “Kingston Unwritten” - an inspiring exhibition that reveals the extraordinary lives of ordinary people from Kingston across space and time.

Experience the untold stories of local residents, past and present. Guided by community researchers and local groups, this project uncovers overlooked narratives by delving into Kingston’s archives and recording personal memories through oral interviews.

Open everyday from 10 am to 5 pm till December 1 at the Kingston Market House. Don’t miss it!
