Garnethill Womens’s Heritage Walk for National Groups

This guided tour of Glasgow’s Garnethill area spotlights the women who pioneered Europian art movements, designed the banners for suffragette processions, created the first Women’s Library in Scotland and made Garnethill into one of the most exciting cultural and multicultural hotspots in Glasgow.

The tour is for members of groups outside Glasgow who may be interested in developing a women’s heritage walk in their own local area.

Sunday 26th February 2012, 2pm-4pm 
Free of charge.

If you would like to come along or want more information, contact Morag Smith on 0141 248 9969 or email info@womenslibrary.org.uk

If you are interested in women’s history then perhaps you know of a memorial to a woman in your area that hasn’t been marked on our Women of Scotland map? Or maybe you know the story behind a name?  Maybe you will discover some on this Women’s Heritage Walk! We want women across Scotland to go out and find the monuments, landmarks, street names and buildings that mark the lives and achievements of women (whether famous, humble or notorious) who have helped to shape Scotland. We are launching Mapping Monuments to Women on Saturday 10th March to mark International Women’s Day. Click here for more information.
