Photography workshop 8/07/10 is titled ‘Cameraless Photography’ which is a workshop designed to introduce the simple magic of photography’s origins. It involves participants in making their own camera from an old biscuit or coffee tin and then make pinhole photographs of the local area, developing them in a makeshift darkroom set up in the hall. Suitable for all ages from 6 years. Then the workshop on 15/07/10 is photographic badge and mirror making. This fun session will give people the opportunity to make their own badges and compact mirrors or collaged images in the design. Suitable for all ages and family groups.

The multi-story exhibition contains a unique selection of work made in the last two years by local residents and artists Iseult Timmermans and Lindsay Perth, based in the distinctive Red Road housing estate in Glasgow. Using traditional and contemporary art – from digital animation to knitting – the results reflect issues around regeneration and the creation of new communities alongside celebrating the participants’ creativity, and recording residents’ memories.
