GDODF Sharmanka Visit
Sharmanka is offering an opportunity to explore our gallery and learn about Sharmanka's history.
You will also be treated to a mini-show of three of Sharmanka's artworks as a glimpse into its theatrical experience.
We will be running 22 visit slots (30 min duration each) over the course of GDODF.
Approximate capacity for each slot is 50 visitors.
Sharmanka will be running a daily timetable of bookable visit slots from Thursday 17th to Sunday 20th September.
This visit is not one of Sharmanka's full shows.
Whilst running a programme of free visits as part of the Glasgow Doors Open Days Festival in the mornings and early afternoons, Sharmanka will also continue its operation of scheduled performances with a paid entry in the late afternoons and evenings.

About this Venue
Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre
Sharmanka is one of the most popular and unique attractions in Glasgow.
It has been entertaining and enthralling its audiences for over three decades since the original opening in 1989.
Sharmanka features an extensive collection of kinetic (moving) sculptures assembled from found objects, beautiful scrap and exquisitely hand carved characters.
Each one of these ‘kinemats’ is fused with synchronised soundtrack and bespoke lighting design.
The artworks are layered with cross-cultural stories and mesmerising visuals loved across all generations.
