On
Sunday the 12th of June the Cre8 Summit began on the south side of Glasgow. An inspiring local project set up in response both
to the approved building of the new M74 northern extension and the G8
summit to be held in July 2005.
The project aims to transform an area on the route of the M74 left
derelict by the
planners into a community garden blossoming with flowers and
activities, old folk relaxing and young people playing but most
importantly our neighbourhoods building.
report
Between 11th June and Friday 17th June we were creating a
community
garden on a piece of wasteland along the propsed route of the
M74
motorway extension which will cut through 2 communites and
cause
massive congestion and contamination. (for more info see
www.jam74.org
) There is a social space with workshops, with food provided and
plenty of chances to get stuck in. Celebration with a party on 18th
June. After that, there will be a
family festival between 29th June and 3rd July. Your
skills/help/plants/gas-parafin lamps/arts materials are more than
welcome and needed.
