We run a programme of free and Pay-What-You-Can events at the Library and online.
See what events we have coming up below.
Trans Writes: Creative Writing Group
Trans Writes is a creative writing group for anyone who identifies as trans or non-binary. We welcome writers of all levels, including those who want to try writing for the first time. Together we'll explore trans identity and creative expression; this is a space for you to experiment, whether you’re writing something serious, something playful, or something in-between.
Poetry Open Mic
Join us for a night of creativity and expression in the heart of Glasgow's Southside. Whether you're a seasoned performer or trying out the mic for the first time, this event is the perfect opportunity to share your voice and connect with fellow artists.
Application Hub
Have you got an application you really need to finish… but you just can’t quite sit down and do it? Application Hub is just the ticket. These monthly sessions take the power of body doubling to run as a two-hour focus group using a gentle Pomodoro structure: we’ll set goals together, do short bursts of deep work, check in with each other, and end with a short moment to decompress.
TRANS//CODED: a coding meetup for trans people
Learning to code? Working on a project? Working on a game? Want to start coding but don’t know where? Need help figuring out particular software? These monthly meetups are a chance to share and discuss any coding-related projects with a group of like-minded peers.
Comic Club
Comic Club provides a social space for people interested in making comics or any other form of visual storytelling. Participants can bring an existing project to work on, start something from scratch, or just spend the time sketching and doodling.
