Bringing our wall to life!

We are excited to announce we are collaborating with the Glasgow City Centre Mural Fund and Cobolt Collective to produce a mural celebrating Glasgow Doors Open Days Festival 30^th Anniversary.

Cobolt Collective are an all female mural collective comprised of Erin Bradly-Scott, Chealsea Frew, Kat Louden and Edda Karolina. Despite the fact that women make up 50% of the population and 70%-80% of art students are female, almost all large scale murals in Glasgow are painted by a small number of male artists. Cobolt was formed to offer an alternative to the gender imbalance within Glasgow’s mural scene. They will be painting the mural onto one of the walls of the former Glasgow Tobacco Warehouse, now home to GTW Storage (that’s us!).

The mural is a tribute to Glasgow’s rich architectural heritage and is illustrated by Liz Lochhead’s love letter poem- “The Bargain”. The mural will be unveiled on September 22nd (from 2pm onwards) with a live performance by Glaswegian brass band, Brass Aye!

This will be a free but ticketed event.

Tickets are available here.
