Museums, Empire and Difficult Heritage at Kelvingrove

  • Outside rear north-facing entrance to Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum Argyle Street Glasgow, Scotland, G3 8AG United Kingdom (map)

This walking tour of Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum examines the entanglements between museums and empire. We'll discuss Kelvingrove’s links with chattel slavery, colonialism and imperialism; recognise the ways this history continues to shape it today; and think about how museums can be spaces for having meaningful conversations about empire and its legacies.
