Within Garnethill’s confined boundaries we spotlight the women who pioneered European art movements, designed the banners for suffragette processions, created the first women’s Library in Scotland and made Garnethill into the most exciting cultural and multicultural hotspot in Glasgow.

Garnethill is at the heart of Glasgow’s city centre but remains an unknown quarter for many. This walk takes in its grand tenements, painted gables, miniature park, synagogue and world acclaimed architectural triumphs. These and other fascinating landmarks help us to tell the stories of some of the most remarkable achievements of women in Glasgow’s history.creative-mackintosh-festival-web2

There are 2 walks taking place as part of the Creative Mackintosh Festival. These take place on:

Saturday 11th October, 2pm to 4pm,
or Sunday 26th October, 2pm to 4pm
