Topics on the day will include the street history of Bridgeton, and park life in Glasgow. Learn about how to use different types of documents stored in the Glasgow City Archives, such as war-time concert programmes and historical documents about people. Contribute your own ideas to our graffiti wall – ‘Culture is …'

Places at this workshop are free of charge. Refreshments and lunch will be provided.
