VENUE ADDRESS:
The Point Community Hub, 180 Queen’s Drive, Glasgow G42 8QD (1 minute walk from Queen’s Park train station and Pollokshaws Rd)
Deirdre Molloy and Romy Galloway from SGHET will present on ‘Digital Dilemmas: Creating a Sustainable & Accessible Community Archive‘ sharing their archive design research findings and touching on some of SGHET’s key archive collections, including Southside Memories, Southside Lockdown Lens, and Pollok Free State.
In turn, they’ll explore some of the challenges digitisation and digital activity in general presents for a climate-conscious heritage archives sector, and to communities already being affected by the consequences of the climate crisis.
The event (9.30am-4pm) offers a varied programme of presentations, workshops and a ‘one-minute-mayhem’ session of rapid fire talks, plus refreshments. During the breaks attendees can browse a range of heritage stalls including ours, at which we’ll have our South Glasgow Heritage Trails guidebook on sale (cash only).
For those who can’t make it in person, there’s also a livestream of the event accessible from anywhere, bookable below.
