Gin Palace

Ok, so this is not happening in the southside, but it has been organised by three southsiders, it will be showing the work of a huge number fellow southsiders and it is being held on a street which has South in its name, so I think it manages to sneak in. Plus it looks really cool.

The Gin Palace: "Details To Follow" - 10+11 April 2010
12-16 South Frederick Street

The Gin Palace is a newly formed company which will establish a new venue in Glasgow, a design hub, for showcasing and selling the conceptual and functional work of selected, emerging and established designers with some connection to Scotland. Once it is established the business will comprise three distinct but integrated strands: a gallery; a shop; and a café/bar. `Details To Follow` is the second pop-up design event presented by The Gin Palace to creat buzz and is basically an exhibition of around 40 designers from across various disciplines.

We went along to their first pop up show in November last year and there was some really great stuff and I ended up buying quite a few Christmas gifts by the designers that showed work there. If you fancy the sound of it and would like to find out more about the show and how to get an invite to the exclusive opening on the Friday night then contact the Gin Palace guys here or pop along this Saturday or Sunday and check it out.
