Vorschlag für einen Besuch in Glasgow bei unfassbar netten und austauschbegeisterten Kolleginnen in der #glasgowwomenslibrary

Straßenschild weiß mit schwarzem Schriftzug Glasgow Women's Library neben einem Durchfahrtverbotensymbol, in dem die Gestalt einer Frau hingewandt zu einem i-Zeichen, das die Abkürzung für Information darstellt, abgebildet ist. Darunter ein zweites Bild mit dem Inhalt: No Ordination Library

Looking for things to see/do in Glasgow, the Women's Library keeps mentioning pieces and contribution by Yoko Ono to "Peace Arbour", and I'm thinking "but… isn't she dead? 🤔".
Turns out no, at 91 she's still alive and making art. 😄

Boobs incoming 🪡 🧶 🧵

Big fan of this quilt at the Glasgow Women’s Library 📚 - a lovely, welcoming and unexpectedly large space w/ multiple exhibits, tea/coffee & community spaces in addition to incredible collections 🥰♀

"Comfort: The Breast Quilt" (Lois Blackburn & others) at Glasgow Women’s Library - a large quilt of assorted 3D textile breasts made by 180 individuals, reflecting on various themes

One of my favourite panels, which appears to be a bunch of red-thread embroidered boobs hanging from a hat

Another favourite panel which features an image of the Virgin Mary (I think) and embroidered text reading ‘Bless that boob’

I love this feature of the Glasgow Women's Library in Bidgeton. Designed in 2016 by Collective Architecture, it's cladding for a lift tower featuring selected titles from the library's collection. It's a great way to blend a modern adaptation on to an old building while linking it to the building's new function.

The former Bridgeton Public Library on Landressy Street in the east end of Glasgow. Designed by J.R. Rhind in a Classical style and built in 1903, it's now home to the Glasgow Women's Library.
