DESCRIPTION:EXPERIENCE THE RICH HISTORY AND CULTURAL IMPACT OF SCOTLAND ON 
 THE U.S. AND OUR LOCAL REGION!\n\nJoin us for an engaging evening as Dr. B
 arbara MacHaffie explores the conditions in Scotland which gave rise to wa
 ve after wave of emigration to the US in the 18th and 19th centuries. Dr. 
 Timothy G. Anderson of Ohio University will also share insights into Scots
 -Irish immigration and its lasting influence on American culture.\n\nEnhan
 cing the discussion\, guests will enjoy a three-course meal featuring trad
 itional Scottish fare\, making this a truly immersive historical and culin
 ary experience. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to learn\, savor\, an
 d connect with Scotland’s enduring legacy!\n\nWe’re excited to share t
 he history behind each dish on our menu\, offering a taste of Scotland’s
  rich culinary traditions.\n\nThe evening begins with Cock-a-Leekie Soup\,

 ock\, a traditional quickbread baked in a skillet.\n\nFor the main course\
