About this Event
Join us on a journey through the histories of Govan. From work-ins and red roses to rent strikes and the arms trade, find out about some of the people and movements that have shaped the area over the years. This tour is a bit different to our standard Govan itinerary - please note the different start point at Water Row! We'll have new stops along the way to KPC ranging from the Garden Festival and refugee solidarity to antifascist action on Paisley Roiad West/
As part of Kinning Park Complex 30th anniversary celebrations you are invited to drop in to KPC after this tour for tea and coffee, a look round the building and exhibitions, and to find out more about the events happening to commemorate 30 years since the building was successfully occupied by the local community to prevent its closure.
