Polish culture will take centre stage in York’s Explore Library with the return of the annual Polish Heritage Day on Saturday, May 11.

In collaboration with Our City Hub, Polish Saturday School in York, York Explore Library and Archives, and Republic of Poland Embassy, revellers can expect a jampacked day of music, entertainment, and much more.

Starting from 10am and running until 3pm, the event is set to play host to live music, creative workshops and face painting with a little bit of something for everyone, regardless of their age or background.
