Save Tramway Campaign: Latest Developments

On 27 April, 2004, a meeting was called by Bonnar Keenlyside (consultants appointed by Glasgow City Council) that brought together representatives of the arts to discuss the future of Tramway.

This meeting, also attended by a representative from Glasgow City Council, resulted in a series of constructive proposals being drawn up to safeguard the future of Tramway with a focus on:

• Artistic excellence leading to challenging projects that would result in increased attendance

• A clear local, national and international vision

• A long-term strategy with incremental changes along the way

• A shared emphasis on quality across the activities in the building

• Improved marketing, interpretation and education

• Better governance and the importance of creating valid posts to be filled with the necessary expertise
