We’re back with our ever-popular Women of Maryhill Walk, this time as part of the West End Festival running in June. The guided tour will start at Maryhill Burgh Halls and go along the canal, discovering the history of women in the area.

An heiress, a Suffragette, mill workers and “wayward girls”: discover the buildings and areas where women made history on our guided walk along the canal banks of Maryhill.

The tour will run for two hours with limited spaces available. Book your free ticket here.

Would you like to hear more about plans for Maryhill Museum?

Come along to our first meeting and see what's happening behind the scenes. You'll get to see plans for the museum, have your say and see how you can get involved. You'll even get a chance to get hands on with some artefacts and help us research our own wee part of Glasgow.

We would particularly welcome residents from the area, those who have lived here for a number of years but have since moved away and those who worked in the area's heavy industry. Maryhill Burgh Halls Trust are working to safeguard our shared history and we cant have a community museum without the community so come along and have your say!

This event is free but we do ask you to register here.

Light refreshments will be served.

If you're interested and involved with heritage in your local community, then join us for this event at the Halls by The Scottish Community Heritage Alliance, as part of a community heritage research workshop series around Scotland. We will be talking about networks, sharing ideas about how a new national network might look, and what it could do for community heritage.
 
The day will be informal, and follow a simple format with an opening speaker followed by discussion workshops. The event is free but requires sign-up here.

This event is sponsored by the Royal Society of Edinburgh and is hosted by The University of St. Andrews, the National Library of Scotland, and Ergadia Heritage.

Join us for the first of our Monday Memories sessions at Maryhill Burgh Halls. A monthly social group to have a cup of tea and a biscuit and talk about our shared history.

This month we are 'going to the pictures' and have a variety of objects and photographs relating to the heyday of silver screen.

Light refreshments will be served.

Do you remember the first film you ever saw in the pictures? Or have memories of the beautiful cinemas that used to exist in Maryhill and across Glasgow? If so, we have a treat for you!

In this session we will look at some original artefacts from the golden age of cinema and you can see some photos of cinemas in their heyday. Bring along your own photos or tickets to jog your memory and share with others. This event will also be the first meeting of the Maryhill History Group so stick around after for a chat and a cup of tea to find out more. 

This is a free drop in session, suitable for all ages, so you can come whenever you like!
