Over the next four years, Concrete Designs to Thrive includes events in each of Scotland's eight cities.
For Architecture Fringe 2023, the programme launches in Glasgow with 3 interventions
- TALK Thursday 8 June 6-8pm Urban Co-Design for Well Being - inviting you to the Impact Arts Venue complex in Merchant City, to engage with expert co-design practitioners, in our latest Twilight Talk.
- EXHIBITION Thursday 8 June 6-8pm Image Building - artists, designers and urban photographers, inspired by concrete, begin to construct a new Exhibition, to build through our 4-year programme
- WALK Sunday 11 June 2-4pm Glasgow Green and Grey - join us for a Sunday stroll in Glasgow Green, exploring one of the city's favourite green spaces, a walk and talk with fresh eyes and special guests,
Concrete Designs to Thrive emerges from a series of walks, co-designed with people who have experienced homelessness. To this end, Journeys in Design is collaborating with Invisible Cities, a social enterprise training people who have experienced homelessness to become walking tour guides. Ahead of our launch, we held closed Urban Photography and Co-Design Workshops in and around Glasgow Green.
