Ceylon- (European )Burgher heritage Exhibition: 2015
The Heritage Exhibition team members have postponed our event for the end of June 2015. The event will take place in Amsterdam, Nederland. The final place /address; has yet to be decided as we have three offers to consider.
• We are re-vamping our information web-site: which should be available to the public-view by November 2012.
Our members wanted to feel comfortable, in summer rather than brace a cold Dutch winter. Alongside the premier, seminars [&films]will be included.
Summer in city activities:: the event originators are planning events, ship trips and city tours in conjunction with the Burgher-heritage Exhibition. The premier evening will be highlighted with a Gala: Dance & dinner.
As all good things take time, postponing the event was a welcome solution.Enhancing the presentation materialand giving us more time for the encyclopedia, we kindly appreciate your understanding and apologize for the inconvenience.
The Presentation sector would kindly request for::
• Old family photography in scans, also, family relics / mementoes which would be interesting presentation material.
We only accept scans please without frames as we have to enlarge the photography.
• Coats of arms are being collected, should you have an image of an authentic [VOC period] coats of arms, we would be most happy to have a copy.
The Heritage Exhibition team sends their sincerer thanks and hopes to hear from you soon. Thank you.
