Key Highlights Airdrieonians travel to Firhill for a crucial match against Partick Thistle. Ruari Paton’s first-half strike was enough in the previous meeting between the teams. Harry Stone, Airdrieonians’ goalkeeper, believes his team can perform well at Firhill. The match is set to be a key fixture for both sides as they battle for league positions. Airdrieonians Prepare for Big Test in…

Napier has returned to Partick to discover the old village he knew of the 1840s has transformed, and attempts to record the history of it for posterity before any more is lost.

My favourite part so far is how the author entirely disagrees with certain stated facts about local history that are now repeated on Wikipedia. It will be extremely fun starting an edit war over this.

this morning from 10 about almost noon Me and some other classmates took a trip to Stocking field bridge to sit in on a meeting between make it Glasgow to discus their possible involvement in the G.R.I.D open air Mural Art trail project I am taking part in for my placement.

first Laura, the placement holder at SWG3 told them everything I already know about the "Stories of the Clyde" project, as well as some broader history about SWG3s art projects I didn't known about, such as that each community organisation taking part gets £2k to create an art project of any kind to use in the project. I also learned more about the plans to have a student from Glasgow School of Arts Augmented reality division help add an augmented reality aspect to the murals and add more tech to them using apps and QR codes to make the murals more memorable for the communities they are based in.

I then learned more about what Make It Glasgow do. they are an Non-profit, Artist lead community arts group specialising in the creation and installation of ceramic art projects, built on the areas heritage of being a global ceramics and pottery manufacturer. They now offer ceramics workshops and have installed many ceramic sculptures in the local area. I walked past many of these installations to get to the meeting.

"Bella the Beithir". Concrete covered with hand made and Purchased ceramic tiles, the Hand made tiles were made by school kids in the local area.

View of stocking field bridge support structure. the base of the structure is covered with the ceramic tile art in the above photo.

I learned its designed by the same architect who designed the New Patrick - Govan bridge.

they are linked to SWG3 buy their proximity to the stocking field bridge, built by the same architect that built the Govan Patrick Bridge that is to play a part of the planned Govan, Patrick, Yorkhill Mural art project. both bridge water ways that divide communities and were important to Glasgow's industrial past.

at the end they brainstormed project ideas such as combining ceramic mosaic art with street art in some way.

I learned a lot about the industrial ceramic making process and how Make it Glasgow has ambition to restart this industry, I learned about the Arts opportunities of north Glasgow, a part of the city i didnt travel to until today.. and more aspects of the "Stores of the Clyde" project.
