A Line of Water – Scottish Writers Centre
Sunday, 9 December, 2025, 7 p.m.
CCA Clubroom, 350 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow G1 3JD
A Line of Water – Catherine Eunson and Mary Thomson | Q&A | Readings
A Line of Water was created by Catherine Eunson and Mary Thomson in response to the story of the great Victorian engineering project which brought a clean water supply to Glasgow, a city ravaged by epidemics of Cholera.
Mary and Catherine researched and responded to different aspects of the story, and the resulting sequence merges their poems into a narrative.
Their reading of the 15 poems is accompanied by projected background images using period photographs and original drawings and paintings by Mary.
In the second half there will be a Q*A along with an open mic with readings on the theme of water. Please get in touch via info(at)scottishwriterscentre.co.uk if you would like to read.
