Folktales for New Scots

This unique workshop for Glasgow Doors Open Day Festival is part of Folktales for New Scots, a year-long programme celebrating community and cultural exchange between New Scots and long established Scottish residents.

No matter what your background, all those aged 16+ are invited to a session which brings together people with migrant experience and those who are ‘born and bred’ locals.

We’ll take part in print-making activities led by award-winning artist Marta Adamowicz (printing images of Glasgow’s iconic buildings), and hear lively folktales and urban myths from in and around Glasgow, with storyteller Naomi O Kelly.

We don’t often get the chance to meet all our neighbours, and Folktales for New Scots is about making that possible! Come along to be part of a real celebration of diversity – a gentle chance to chat and make art with folks you might not otherwise encounter in your everyday life.

Led by migrant-run company Beetroots Collective, in the historic building - The Pyramid at Anderston. For those aged 16+.Folktales for New Scots is funded by Creative Scotland National Lottery Fund.
