Spring Fling – Space and Place

7 – 18 April, 2025

Advanced Research Centre (ARC), 11 Chapel Lane, Glasgow G11 6EW

Tickets at Eventbrite – Space and Place 

What areas do you value in the city where you live? How do you think about yourself in relation to the galaxy? Where do you go to get your body moving? How easy is it for you to get from a to b? What things can you do to feel more connected to the natural world?

These are just some of the questions that our researchers at the University of Glasgow are asking as part of this year’s ARC Spring Fling. Through interrogating our theme of Space and Place, the ARC invites you to a wealth of FREE public events throughout the Easter Holidays.

There’s lots to get stuck into with something for all ages including:

A drop-in family craft and research trail designed by Emma Melchor
Our annual ARC Game Night with the UofG Games and Gaming Lab
Displays of Chinese culture as well as Peking Opera performances
Fitness and the science of the body circuits
Planting and botany sessions
An exploration of DNA
A visit from children’s author Alan Dapre with an interactive event on his new book My Dog Max
Workshops about women’s cycling in Glasgow
Mini-satellite making workshops with artist Siobhan Healy
Film screenings
And more!
