Collect:if is a fabulous new network bringing together Women of Colour (WoC) who are established figures in the arts, culture and creative industries in Scotland and those who are developing their practice.
We aim to explore the challenges affecting Black and Minority Ethnic women in the Arts and create opportunities for them to progress in their field of work. Furthermore, we aim to inform and assist mainstream arts organisations in meeting the EDI (Equality, Diversity and Inclusion) standards within their service provision.
Where you are, where you’ve been, where you grew up . . . how has it shaped who you are? How have you shaped the places you’ve been, where you’ve lived and passed through?
Seeking out and sharing women’s words, inspired and borne out of both rural and urban landscapes across Scotland and beyond, the Glasgow Women’s Library Women in the Landscape project aims to reveal, to celebrate and to preserve women’s stories, experiences and environmental heritage.
