West End Festival: Women of the West End Heritage Walk
Sunday, 14th June, 2015, 2:00pm to 4:00pm
£6.00 – £10.00
Join women from history, such as Mary Barbour and Agnes Dollan, on this pioneering women’s heritage walk that reveals the hidden histories of Glasgow’s West End: from pipe-smoking forewomen to revolting schoolmistresses. A unique and inspiring insight into the hitherto unsung women who made the West End.
Sunday 14th June, 2pm (£10/£6)
This women’s heritage walk is part of the West End Festival Programme. We are also holding a Glasgow Girls of Garnethill Heritage walk in the festival on Saturday 27th June – please join us for both.
