The new exhibition Red Road - Past, Present and Future opens on 28 February 2013. This display explores the impact of those iconic high rise flats. Funded by Glasgow Housing Association and Glasgow Life, it features artworks and commentary created by the Red Road communities, in response to the rise and fall of the city’s most visible tower blocks. 

The exhibition asks what should be collected and preserved from the Red Road flats for the future, and also what visitors would like to see on display at the People’s Palace in the 21st century. Come and join the discussion – tell us the stories you want to see at the Palace. 

As part of the exhibition, join us for a series of events:
