Speaking for Scotland’s Buildings since 1956, the AHSS is a national charity with over 1000 members and volunteers across Scotland. We use our voice to study, protect and celebrate Scotland’s wealth of historic buildings and environments.

January 25th: Glasgow's Cinema Experiment
7.30pm - 9pm
Gordon Barr & Gary Painter explore the city’s full and rich cinema heritage, from “back-court” theatres to the finest art-deco super cinemas.
