Speirs Locks Summer Party 2016

Here at The Whisky Bond, we don’t just provide creative workspace, we’re also part of a growing creative & sports community located around Glasgow’s canal in Speirs Locks. This July we were part of the first Speirs Locks Summer Party which saw a whole array of creative workshops, family-friendly sports activities, walking tours, open studios, sample sales, exhibition preview and music, food and drinks available along the canal.

A packed day of activities, this was a real celebration of the great collection of arts organisations, creative businesses and artists based here in the building and along the canal in north Glasgow. As part of our ongoing events programme it was a great opportunity to see and experience a little of what’s happening here.
