Heritage-Walks-WebDuring the Mackintosh Festival in Glasgow in true GWL style we are celebrating the life of Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh and the other Glasgow Girls on this one of a kind walking tour.

Within Garnethill’s confined boundaries we spotlight the women who pioneered European art movements, designed banners for suffragette processions, created the first women’s library in Scotland and made Garnethill the most exciting cultural and multicultural hotspot in Glasgow.
