We head East for the weekend of 19th and 20th May in celebration of the Festival of Museums. Glasgow’s East End is renowned as a centre for people’s history and some of the most remarkable characters of this famous historic area are women: whether carpet weavers and market traders, campaigners or artists.
We will be at Bridgeton Library, in the heart of the East End, from 10am on Saturday 19th May and we would love you to join us, wherever you’re from, for a day of fun and activities.
Last week, we were delighted to receive an award for the She Settles in The Shields exhibition at a Civic Reception at Glasgow City Chambers hosted by The Rt Hon The Lord Provost Councillor Jacqueline McLaren and Glasgow City Council.
