What's On at Maryhill Burgh Halls
EXHIBITION: Jo Sunshine Art
Jo Sunshine is a visually impaired artist based in Glasgow. Jo lost her eyesight in an accident fifteen years ago, when the car she was travelling in rolled off the motorway.
Jo is completely blind in her left eye and only has a misty blur in her right so draws everything large and in bold colours. Outlining the images in black helps her to see the image and leads to her distinct style.
Maryhill Burgh Halls Trust would like to extend a special thanks to Jo Sunshine for allowing us to showcase her beautiful artwork.
The exhibition is open to the public Monday-Friday from 10am-5pm at our back foyer.
Exhibition: East Park 150th Anniversary
East Park school was opened by William Mitchell in response to the Education Act of 1872 which made it compulsory for children between the ages of 5 and 13 years to attend school. The school was founded for all those children that could not access education because of illness, or disability, or family circumstances.
This exhibition explores this long history through a series of never-before-seen photographs.
The East Park 150th Anniversary exhibition is open to the public Monday-Friday from 10am-5pm and Saturdays 10am-4pm.
Exhibition: The George Ward Collection
Exploring 1970s Maryhill through the eyes of a local man
A Maryhill man born and bred, the late George Ward used his trusty cameras to document and immortalise the buildings and characters which were integral to Maryhill and Glasgow, many of which have since disappeared. ‘The George Ward Collection’ captures a Maryhill suspended in time, invoking nostalgia for a long-lost city landscape, along Maryhill Road and beyond.
The exhibition includes old 35mm film photographs of streets and canal landscapes, as well as a selection of footage filmed using 8mm and Super 8 cine cameras. Cinefilm footage will be shown on rotation and will change every month.

Exhibition: "The way we were"
A photographic journey back in time. These photographs document the wholesale demolition of Glasgow’s slum tenements to be replaced by multistory boxes in the sky and peripheral housing schemes remote from the city centre. A time which saw the decline of the traditional industries of heavy engineering, shipbuilding and steelworks which had made Glasgow the second city of the empire. The days of Clyde steamers which transported Glaswegians “doon the water" to Dunoon, Largs and Rothesay. Gillespie’s images capture memories of the past and of a brave new world in the makin
