What does our future hold?
We want you to tell us.
We ask you - what will the future of our neighbourhoods be? Originally presented as a series of scenes around Trongate titled ‘2020 VISIONS’ we did an open call to the public for stories, photos, and ideas.
Part promenade, part treasure hunt, part collective dream; our curated visual celebration empowered us to reflect and imagine a brighter future.
What would you like to see? Is it something you have been wishing for, or something you want to be able to do, maybe a shop you want to visit, a place you wish to be… in our world , anything is possible.
We invite you to become the writers and players of our show. The city is your stage. We are still accepting messages as part of a wider project.
