350 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3JD
Opening times

2-3pm

Glasgow Women’s Library brings its acclaimed Women’s Heritage Walks to the CCA with a tour focusing on Garnethill.  This walk takes in Garnethill’s 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 history. 

This walking tour will 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.

The walk will include some steep inclines and unfortunately will not be readily accessible to wheelchair users.  Walking shoes are recommended. 

Please meet in the Read Out! Read In! Feminist Lines of Flight in Art and Politics reading room at CCA. For details of the Read Out! Read In! Feminist Lines of Flight in Art and Politics Reading Group please
