ovember 13th, or December 24th,
or any other day next year. I I I That’s because Glasgow is Cultural Capital of " if Europe 1990. And we’re celebrating with thousands of different cultural events from around the world. Adding to our already extra- ordinary cultural heritage.
Right from the start there’s non-stop music. Though who’s complaining, with a line-up ranging from Chris Rea through Polish choral music to Indian drumming?
‘ There’s plenty to applaud in our theatres too - Russian opera, Scottish ballet, Glenda Jackson, and if the horror film festival doesn’t get you screaming, Robbie Coltrane certainly will.
In sport, Britain takes on
the rest of Europe at tug of war
(no, not all at once). And watch out, some wild animals are on the loose — the American footballers.
Or maybe you’d rather come up and see our etchings; Picasso’s that is. As well as Palestinian
painting, Degas, and the many local street artists who’ll be decorating taxis, pillar boxes, even office blocks.
Can you handle so much culture? If not, the Buddhists’ meditation course should calm you down.
But first you’ll need to know when this and other events are on. So send off the coupon for a brochure today. Then who knows what you could be doing _ on January 28th, ‘ _ ’5- February 11th,, ‘ March'lst. . . '-
