What happens at the sessions?
Over the weeks workshops will look to develop a forum through which the rules we learned from our mothers can be discussed and creatively explored, with women’s groups across Glasgow, leading towards an archive of recordings, testimonies and photographs that will be housed at the Glasgow Women’s Library and accessible to all. In addition, the workshops will lead to an installation sharing at the end of the project.
