Festival 2024

Essence of a Memory Exhibition

Organised by Glasgow Life Libraries

1st – 14th November 2024

The Mitchell Library, 201 North Street, Glasgow G3 7DN

This exhibition is open to the public.

As part of this years’ To Absent Friends Festival, The Mitchell Library will be displaying the Essence of a Memory exhibition.

All kinds of things evoke memories of people who’ve died, and many of them come with an interesting anecdote. The To Absent Friends Essence of a Memory competitions ran over 2014 – 2016. It challenged people to take a photo and write up to 50 words which together evoke a story or memory of a dead loved one. This exhibition shows the winning images from 2014 and 2015. They will be displayed in The Mitchell Library as part of the To Absent Friends festival from 1st – 14th November 2024.

This is a free event – drop in – no booking required.
