Think lunchtime is just about what’s on your sandwich? Think again! Pull up at chair at our weekly Story Café, sit back with your cuppa and travel the world, one tale at a time. We’ve read about barefoot, pioneering climbers in Snowdonia, globe-trotting, fearless matriarchs from India, and fabled heroines on dangerous quests in Afghanistan.
Exhibition launch of 'Material Matters' which shares the works created during the project by women at workshops across Scotland. Material Matters involved women of different ages and cultures in the creation of sewn wall hangings inspired by each person’s emotional attachment to a textile that has a story to tell: a grandmother’s quilt, a child’s dungarees, a Palestinian embroidery, a wedding dress.
Check out some of the useful, quaint and downright outrageous advice contained in the archives of Glasgow Women’s Library and the National Library of Scotland Moving Image Archive. Choose your favourites as we create our own exhibition of some of the top tips and short films.
Following its triumphant launch in September at GWL, March is now making its way around Scotland.
