141 Bridgegate, G1 5HZ
1873 & 2009, Clarke and Bell & Nicoll Russell Studios (Cat A)
One of Glasgow’s most enduring and endearing landmarks, A-listed building The Briggait has been a part of the River Clyde skyline since the Nineteenth Century. Built in 1873, the Briggait served as the city’s bustling fish market for over 100 years.
The Briggait, now operated by Wasps, provides vibrant studio space for over 80 visual artists and office space for 25 cultural organisations and charities. Join us for a live streamed talk from Glasgow Building Preservation Trust’s Ingrid Shearer, and Wasps’ Tara Marshall-Tierney, to learn more about the history and the untold stories of this spectacular building, and take a look behind closed doors as some of our tenants present a virtual ‘open studio’ on our website. |
