The Event!

Here's just a small taster of what was happening on Saturday in the Clyde Shopping Centre.

Welcome to the new beautiful and colourful Clydebank with arms, legs, smiles, polka dots, glitter, flowers and lots of imagination! This is the Clydebank that local people built in our model shop on Saturday with lots of excitement and mess.


Hopes for the future - an exhibition about local people's hopes and dreams, on the day people also added their own.

Shoppers stop to read local writers' creative writing and poetry on the empty shops

Up Your Street got off to a crowd stopping start with the help of Celtic Spirit

Poetry readings in the performance space from Clydebank Writers


Sequence dancing with Linnvale Modern Sequence Dancing Class


Drumming, movement, singing and lots of enthusiasm from the Saturday music and drama group


Crowds watch in awe at 'Element' a local group of street dancers

Everyone had a brilliant time and we'd like to thank all our dedicated volunteers, the Clyde Shopping Centre, Brian from InShops and all the amazing staff in the Coop.

If you came along on Saturday please leave us a comment to let us know what you thought of it all - what was your favourite bit?

Y Sort It?


We spent Thursday night with Y Sort It's Dalmuir Youth Action Group looking at what they thought of their area and what they wanted for their futures. Their work, including a film and drawings will be on display at 'Up Your Street' next weekend, so if you want to see what they think come and check it out.
