I was facilitating at a social enterprise session in the Pearce Institute today - WOW. Whenever I go into that building it is just so egotistical self assured Victoriana. To think that this was a local community facility build in the heyday of Britain's Imperial dominance. When I found myself lost (twice) in some of the deep long pasageways I thought 'I'm going to see the ghost of RLS or Dickens or some one like that pass me by.
At one point I did hear ghostly echoes - but then I realised it was just the fading reverberations from Molindar's Govan Festival performance.
There are seemingly still great plans ahead for securing significant funding for this unique building... saved by local community action (and a fiesty District Councillor) from certain closure at least once in very recent years.
