There’ll be tea and conversation, and we’d love to hear your memories of the Garden, however you’d like to share them. That might be a story, a photograph, a sketch, or just something you remember.

They offer space for both activity and stillness, human and non-human encounters, and thinking with the land. Though usually surrounded by a boundary, gardens are never separate from the wider world; they’re shaped by the relationships, histories, and ecologies that run through them.In recent years, the Botanic Garden has undergone some changes. With the closure of the glasshouses, we've entered a new phase, less fixed, more open. It's become a site for experimentation, where different disciplines, ideas and practices can meet. In many ways, this isn’t a break from the past, but a continuation of the Garden’s long-standing role as a place of learning and forward thinking.At this moment of transformation, we wish to revisit the Garden's history with a fresh perspective. What stories have been left out? What has gone unrecorded? How might we begin to piece together a picture of this place, its iterations and relationships, and its role in shaping our understanding of nature, culture and the environment across past, present and future? - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/st-andrews/vip-taster-session-sabg-across-time-developing-a-public-history-project/100001904399994649 - **Event Categories**: workshops - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fvip-taster-session-sabg-across-time-developing-a-public-history-project-tickets-1904399994649 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: St Andrews - **state**: SC - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: St Andrews Botanic Garden - **lat**: 56.3397753 - **long**: -2.7967214 - **full address**: St Andrews Botanic Garden, Canongate, St Andrews, United Kingdom ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: St Andrews Botanic Garden (https://allevents.in/org/st-andrews-botanic-garden/17825285) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/1a8745ae48d137210cdafc8f8e4036ef7e0532b5b61288aca91b90560fb52553-rimg-w1200-h628-dc1a1b17-gmir.jpg?v=1762480123 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/7b20cfaed2e1c77fa4dcd1653ab95fc84db0ee006379c2356308975b350d83bd-rimg-w400-h400-dc1a1a18-gmir.jpg?v=1762480122 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Wed, 19 Nov, 2025 at 01:00 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** St Andrews Botanic Garden, Canongate, St Andrews, United Kingdom - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 GBP - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** St Andrews Botanic Garden - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** workshops - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about VIP Taster Session: SABG Across Time: Developing a Public History Project ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "VIP Taster Session: SABG Across Time: Developing a Public History Project", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/1a8745ae48d137210cdafc8f8e4036ef7e0532b5b61288aca91b90560fb52553-rimg-w1200-h628-dc1a1b17-gmir.jpg?v=1762480123", "startDate": "2025-11-19", "endDate": "2025-11-19", "url": "https://allevents.in/st-andrews/vip-taster-session-sabg-across-time-developing-a-public-history-project/100001904399994649", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "St Andrews Botanic Garden", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "Canongate", "postalCode": "KY168RT", "addressLocality": "St Andrews", "addressRegion": "SC", "addressCountry": "GB" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "56.3397753", "longitude": "-2.7967214" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Join us for a collaborative session to shape a new VIP that develops a public history project at the Botanic Garden", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-04", "availabilityEnds": "2025-11-19", "validFrom": "2026-04-04", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/st-andrews/vip-taster-session-sabg-across-time-developing-a-public-history-project/100001904399994649" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-04", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-04", "url": "https://allevents.in/st-andrews/vip-taster-session-sabg-across-time-developing-a-public-history-project/100001904399994649", "price": 0, "name": "General Admission" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "St Andrews Botanic Garden", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/st-andrews-botanic-garden/17825285", "description": "We are an 18 acre garden with around 8000 plant species in our collection.
