Festival 2022
A Playlist to Remember - University Hospital Hairmyres
Organised by the University Hospital Hairmyres Spiritual Care Department
This public event will take place from 1st to 14th November 2022 at the Sanctuary, University Hospital Hairmyres.
To Absent Friends is always a highlight for our Spiritual Care Departments in NHS Lanarkshire.
Our project this year, A Playlist to Remember, is based on our understanding of the deep and powerful connection between music and memory. It’s likely we have all experienced being transported to a different time and placed when listening to music. In our project we hope to reflect the wonder of music in reconnecting us, in memory, to loved ones and to others who have come into our lives.
We invite people to help create a ‘Playlist to Remember’.
The process of gathering music will be creative and interactive, individual and communal. People will write their dedicated piece of music on a 7” vinyl record shaped card and attach it to a wall frieze in the sanctuary. This will produce a growing art installation in each of our sanctuary spaces in University Hospitals Hairmyres, Monklands, and Wishaw. Contributors will receive a treble clef badge to remember their taking part, encouraging conversations with others, and raising our To Absent Friends project. Support will be available through the spiritual care and staff care teams and refreshments provided.
For more information, please contact Avril Cutler, Graeme Bell, or Joe Keenan on 01355 584585.
