We are now coming to the end of our second exhibition at Gallery Glue, Shop. If you haven’t seen it you should come along this week. The final day is Sunday 1st July and we are open 10-6 all week! We have had some really positive feedback about the show and it has been a great opportunity to showcase local talent. We have also been doing the rounds at some free festivals namely the Green Festival and Banoffee Pie Festival. It was great to meet people and spread the word of Glue! The research trips were a great success. We went to market gallery, glasgow sculpture studios and lowsalt gallery in Glasgow. They were all slightly different with their set up but had similar elements to what Gallery Glue wants to do so we have gained some good advice and contacts! In edinburgh we visited Red door gallery (this was more of a shop with artist products, but we visited it for research into displaying items in the shop exhibition), Analogue (a lovely little shop selling artists books with a space in the back to exhibit work) and Total Kunst/ Forest. Total Kunst is an exhibition space joined onto the forest cafe. The profits from the cafe fund the gallery space and exhibitions they put on and the food is rather lovely! Well worth a visit! Next month we are using the gallery space for residencies. A list of which artists and days will posted on here soon. Felicity GG
