Discover Women’s History in Dennistoun-A Day in the Life
25th August – in this arts and crafts session, we will be examining the spaces we inhabit by creatively documenting our daily lives on a map of Dennistoun. Participants will then write collective poems in response to some of the common locations on the map.
Discover Women’s History in Dennistoun, Friday 9th June to 25th August, 9.30am to 11.30am, Culloden Street Hall, 1 Culloden Street, Dennistoun, Free, Women only
In this exciting new project, we’ll discover the hidden stories of local women and then help to develop a new women’s heritage trail and booklet. We’ll also be taking field trips and sharing our own memories.
You don’t need any previous experience of heritage work – we will include training and support. This project is a chance to make new friends, develop new skills and share your stories of women in Dennistoun.
“I really enjoyed…meeting new like-minded people and making new friendships, sparking memories of good times, the opportunity to share … and gaining …an appreciation of how things were for female family members and other women” East Dunbartonshire women’s heritage project participant
