Seeing Things go to Glasgow Zine Festival at CCA
Saturday, 20th April, 2019, 1:00pm to 3:30pm
Seeing Things is a group that meet up to see art, performances and cultural events put on by women across Glasgow and beyond. We think it’s more fun to go to see things together, and we usually have a cup of tea or coffee afterwards. Our trips are always free. It would be great if you could come along!
What: ‘Fiercely Independent and Queer’ talk from owners of Category Is Books, Glasgow’s only queer bookshop
When: Saturday 20th April, 12:45pm to 3:30pm
Where: Centre for Contemporary Arts, 350 Sauchiehall Street
Who: Freya and Doreen
Why should you join: Seeing things will be attending a talk from Charlotte and Fi who opened ‘Category Is Books’ in Glasgow’s south side in 2018. We will hear about their experience opening the book shop, and why they think queer spaces, representation and visibility is important.
This event is part of Glasgow Zine Festival, so after the talk (1-2:30pm) we will have a look at the stalls and have a cup of tea in Saramago café in CCA.
As always, the tea is on us and we can cover your travel expenses up to £5. Meet in the entrance to CCA at 12:45, Freya and Doreen will have their GWL badges on!
