Over the coming months, Saffy, Margaret and collaborators will continue to work closely with community members in Possilpark to explore, understand and celebrate tree life in Cowlairs.
Through a range of walking, movement, visual arts, photography and citizen science activities, they will generate co-created artworks to be shared in a public exhibition in Possilpark Library, opening on the afternoon of Wednesday 7 February.
Alongside this, Saffy and Margaret are working with Clyde Climate Forest/Green Action Trust and Glasgow City Council to map tree life in Cowlairs and understand how to enhance and support this precious green ecology. This mapping will inform a community tree planting event, meal and film screening on Saturday 16 March.
