About this Event

Join us for an informal session as we look through a selection of photos from the 1955 Glasgow Photographic Survey, and chat about the stories and memories they evoke as we go. The photos will be projected onto the wall so they can be clearly seen by all.

We will also head into the museum store to look more closely at some of the original photographs taken as part of the survey.

Free, but please book a place, teas and coffees provided. This event is part of Dementia Fest by the charity Dementia Heroes Glasgow and also part of WestFest.

If you are coming with a carer or family members please book a space for each person attending.
