Creative Glasgow member, Beth Xia, will be running a series of workshops at Glasgow Zine Library next week. These workshops cover: AI & Feminism, Power & Aesthetics and Design & Social Good and are aimed at graphic designers who want to think critically about the industry.

Background
At the moment Transport Scotland are consulting on the future of the M8 Woodside Viaducts and have only given local people 5 weeks (with only two in-person consultations) to make a decision on whether they should Repair, Replace or Remove the viaducts.

Today, Lateral North is launching Reconnect Glasgow to ask Transport Scotland to rethink its approach and meaningfully engage with local people, communities, businesses and organisations.

Through conversations with local people, businesses and organisations it has become apparent that there is a lack of options, information and time to fully comprehend or discuss what is effectively a +£150m project that will affect the lives of locals (and the rest of Glasgow and beyond) for the next 3-5 years. The consultation closes on 25th March 2026, leaving only two weeks to respond.

Lateral North is keen to offer a collective creative response from Glaswegians and they need your help!

Our Collective Creative Response
Reconnect Glasgow asks local people, young people, communities and Glaswegians to develop a collective creative voice in response to this opportunity.

Lateral North requests that Transport Scotland return to the drawing board and provide a more meaningful and collaborative engagement programme.

Lateral North is asking people throughout Glasgow to respond to ‘design briefs’ that reimagine what the land at the M8 Woodside Viaducts could be. Please visit www.lateralnorth.com/reconnect for more information and see the following documents for how to submit ideas.

Our Spotlight Contributors

Strange Exchange (pictured) is a library and community learning space in the East End of Glasgow. They share resources and programme events that facilitate exchange around arts education, play and collaboration. Part of arts organisation Strange Field, they focus on process-led and experimental practices connected to alternative arts education and creative learning projects. They collect and celebrate work that often remains unseen beyond its immediate context, this includes outcomes and experiments from artist-led programming, artist books, toolkits, publications, ephemera and artworks.

Stuck? Collective CIC is a new organisation that partners with hospitality venues to showcase artists work throughout the city. Currently partnered with Fern andThe Glad Cafe, they are looking to create a sustainable arts economy outside of traditional gallery spaces.

This event is free and open to all – so bring your ideas, your enthusiasm, and your creative spirit – we can’t wait to see you there!
