You are warmly invited to Glasgow Refugee, Asylum and Migration Network’s (GRAMNet) ‘A Walk Down Milestone Lane.’ During this two-part arts workshop, we will paint stones with representations of ‘Milestone’ moments in our own lives, Glasgow’s history as a dispersal city, and messages of kindness. Then, as an alternative map of Glasgow, we will digitally place these stones at locations that symbolise refuge and hope throughout the city. Alternatively, if you wish, you can take your painted stone to the place you want to mark. This collectively mapped route, ‘A Walk Down Milestone Lane’, will be set in stone: a permanent path that the people of Glasgow and beyond can wander down and be reminded of community. The background music to the arts sessions will be your voices: your thoughts on what words like ‘refuge’, ‘sanctuary’, and ‘belonging’ mean. Everyone is welcome — we hope to see you there. To book your place, please contact Meg Wishart at: meg.wishart@glasgow.ac.uk.
