This summer, a team of Museum Studies Students from the Department of Anthropology created the digital exhibition, Toil and Trouble. This well researched exhibition 'explores the unique history of witchcraft in Scotland' through the themes of Medicine or Magic, Gendered Violence and Oppression, Relationship with Religion, Witch Hunts, and Representation. To make the exhibition even more interactive and accessible, the students also created a trail, which you can follow to offer an often hidden history of Aberdeen, through the lens of witchcraft and its history.
The exhibition was so well received, that it was picked up by a variety of media outlets. Curator Jenny Downes and student curator Caitlin Jamison were interviewed on Good Morning Scotland and BBC Scotland's 'The Nine'.
Don't forget to explore the exhibition, and even do the trail!
