About this Event

Glasgow Life Museums invites you to join the newly created Intercultural Youth Group programme, to be a voice for young people from ethnic minority groups in Glasgow.

This programme will experiment with different ways in which museums and galleries can provide a space for underserved young people, aged 18-25, in Glasgow, creating opportunities for development, socialising, and engagement with our vast collection.

We will meet every second Friday, 3 -5 pm, in the Studio on the top floor of GoMA, Royal Exchange Square G1 3AH. Bus tickets e-codes will be available.


If this sounds interesting, please book a slot at our information event to meet us and find out more!


Why an intercultural Youth Group Now?

Between 2019 and 2023 Glasgow Museums was involved in the (OSCH) project, focused on celebrating south Asian heritage and decolonising heritage spaces. We worked directly with young South Asians on a variety of projects across different museums in Glasgow, including GoMA. The success of these projects and especially the feedback from the participants involved helped us to recognise the need for young people from ethnic minority groups to have their own safe space in galleries and museums.

Now, in partnership with the , the Intercultural Youth Group programme aims to be the third space in GoMA for Glasgow’s young people from ethnic minority groups.

Throughout your time in the programme, we will support you to lead on projects and activities about the things you care about, as well as providing opportunities for your development. Join the Intercultural Youth Group if you want to explore our collection, your heritage, Glasgow, and the arts.

So please apply, and don’t worry if at the moment you can’t, as we’re working on some exciting projects that you could be involved in the future, so keep your eye out on our social media!
