Just turn up and take part on Saturday, 18 June!

Strathbungo’s own Greek Thomson Trail will be featured in this year’s national Architecture Week, 17-24 June, a celebration of the built environment throughout the UK.

“Get Closer to Architecture” is the theme for the weeklong extravaganza which aims to bring buildings to life through a series of visual and sensory experiences. Some 500 events are scheduled to take place up and down the country.

The Strathbungo Walk, staged by the Strathbungo Society as part of our annual Bungo in the Back Lanes, will start at 1.30pm on Saturday, 18 June, assembling outside Sammy Dow’s in Nithsdale Road and lasting approximately 90 minutes.

Andrew Greg, local resident and art historian, will lead the walk, looking at the origins, growth and architectural features of the conservation area and surrounding community.

Admission is free and no booking is required. A colour booklet will be available to accompany the walk, price £1.

It’s back: Strathbungo’s 6th annual BUNGo IN THE BACK LANES is set for Saturday, 18th June so mark you diary and make it a date!
This year, why not have your own stall or help out with one of the Society’s?

Think about it: you might

• contribute to the Society’s home baking stall or run your own
• clear out your cupboards and sell your junk (that’s treasure to someone else!)– videos, CDs, toys, bric-a-brac, you name it!
• sell handicrafts, art, jewellery, plants, etc
• make up some tablet, fudge or jam to sell
• get out the barbecue and start flipping burgers
• donate unwanted new merchandise to the Society’s tombola
• perhaps you do aromatherapy? other complementary therapies? fortune-telling?

Or go on, surprise us:

What makes Bungo events is Bungo people!
Your stall will add fun and variety to the day and you might also make a tidy profit–for yourself or your favourite charity. All we ask is a small contribution from your proceeds to the Strathbungo Society so we can continue to running activities in our community.

If you want to have your own stall this year
OR
If you’re willing to help the Committee in any way–put up stalls, blow up balloons, take a shift as a steward, help with children’s activities, contribute to any community stalls–before the event or on the day–
