Eastern Ground
Glasgow City Heritage Trust are thrilled to announce that this spring they will be hosting the Eastern Ground exhibition at our offices on Bell Street.
About Eastern Ground
Partly funded by Glasgow City Heritage Trust, the Eastern Ground project saw the creation of six stunning handmade garments which celebrate the heritage and people of the East End. Designed by bespoke tailor Alis le May, each costume was inspired by one of the area’s historic buildings.
Following on from the original exhibition, held at Strangefield in Dalmarnock, we are delighted to now present a selection of the garments on display at our city centre offices.
Alis explains, “I want people to take fresh look at the area – to appreciate its people, its buildings, the memories they inspire, and even the flowers and plants which grow there…These buildings are not just architectural landmarks; they are repositories of community memories and shared histories”.
Where possible we will update our listings to notify of cancelled, postponed and rescheduled events, however we STRONGLY ADVISE that you check with the venue/organiser in the first instance for updates.
