There are sensory kits available to borrow from reception. The kits contain children’s ear defenders, paper and pencil, emotions cards and fidget toys. Adult-sized ear defenders are also available to borrow from reception. We are working with the autistic community to improve these kits so all feedback is welcome!
2 year ago our Changing Places UK toilet opened to the public and since then hundreds of disabled visitors have used it. Accessibility is very important to us and we work hard to improve it every day.
After a very successful weekend we would like to thank everyone involved in the Riverside Christmas Market & Fair!
Thanks to the showpeople for their hard work running a fantastic fair, to The Showmen’s Theatre Company for their help and Fair Scotland for their tours. Thanks to Nevis Ensemble for ending the weekend with a mini concert. Thanks a lot to our wonderful staff, all of our fabulous vendors, and most importantly, thank you to all of you who visited during the weekend. We couldn't make it happen without you!
With the World Cup in full swing, do you remember seeing this car next to the pitch at British football stadiums?
This is an Invacar, AKA Wee Bluey. The British Ministry of Pensions distributed Invacars free to disabled people from 1948 until 1981. It was conceived as a single passenger car, with a sliding seat for easy access from a wheelchair.
Brian Sweeney fondly remembers it in our display. He would drive his to go to the football and if you drove a Wee Bluey you'd get in free and a great pitch-side view. He remembers that when it rained he couldn't see through the windscreen and every time he hears the whining engine of a wee motor it reminds him of football.
We are having a brilliant time at Riverside this weekend hosting a Christmas Market with 40 stalls selling handmade gifts and decorations.
Outside there is a FREE funfair with fun rides for all the family. Make sure you also catch one of the free guided tours of Fairground history and meet some historical characters along the way, brought to life by The Showmen’s Theatre Company. There will also be a FREE family arts & crafts workshop from 1.30-4pm.
If you are here later in the afternoon on Sunday 27th, you will also catch Nevis Ensemble playing music for visitors under the velodrome!
It is free to enter and you don't need to book anything, so come along and enjoy the festive atmosphere. We are open today until 5pm, and tomorrow from 11am - 5pm 🎄 🎁 ⭐

Artist Tony Heaton’s Sculpture Gold Lamé has taken a Wee Bluey (an original of which can also be seen at Riverside) and transformed it into a beautiful work of art with a powerful message.: “...this one escaped, suspended, transformed from prosthetic to sculpture, transmuted from blue to Gold, Lame to Lamé.”

Inspired by tartan plaid worn by Lord Mungo Murray have fun weaving a wall hanging from sustainable, natural materials in these craft videos. Our learning and curatorial teams have been working hard to help everyone think about how we use precious resources.

Yesterday we posted about pond yachts. We may not be able to get our hands one of those but we can definitely make our own boat and decorate it! You will need a sheet of paper and any materials you want to decorate it - we used watercolours.
Make A Pin Cushion Using An Old T-Shirt! Looking at the beautifully patterned fossils from Glasgow Museums collection gives surprising inspiration for fabric printing and pattern making. Practice different ways to make prints and patterns using the natural world around you. Whist reusing fabrics and stuffing that have been previously used gives you green creditability in your creativity. Reduce, Recycle, Reuse. Explore our fossil and botanical collections using our Collections Navigator: https://bit.ly/3Aofrs5 #ourclimatestories #deargreenplace.
POTATO PRINT BEES Have you seen the honey bee hive inside Kelvingrove Museum? Bees and other insects are very important to all life on this planet. You can help make a good environment for them by planting flowers they like- or just let your garden grow wild! Let’s celebrate our bee friends by making some potato prints of them. #ourclimatestories #deargreenplace
Who or What inspires you? When you look closely at the magnificent Victorian building of Kelvingrove Museum and Art Gallery you will notice statues here and there. Some of these statues are The Muses. In Greek mythology The Muses are the children of the god, Zeus, and they whisper into the minds of people to inspire them: Artists, Builders, Mathematicians whatever... if you listen to your Muse you will be inspired. On Kelvingrove you may be able to find the Muses of Music, Literature, Architecture and Sculpture. Who or what is your Muse: person, place animal or thing? What do they inspire you to do? Let us know in the comments section below.
Go outdoors and explore... get creative with nature! Many artists are inspired by nature so take a leaf out of their book and look a little closer at the natural world around you! Be inspired by our collections and forage for flora and fauna to construct your own incredible creatures. Use the colours and textures of nature to create creepy crawlies and busy bees, feathery birds and even giant ichthyosaurs! You can share your creations using the hashtags below. #ourclimatestories #deargreenplace
RECYCLED PAPER BUGS Do you know that insects and bugs recycle? They decompose dead animals and plants and give nutrients back to the soil to keep it healthy and fresh. Try recycling scraps of paper, card and packaging and turn your rubbish into precious little bugs. #ourclimatestories #deargreenplace
This week Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum will be encouraging you how to put the 'green' into your art. Be truly inspired by all that nature shows you... first up.. Growing Greener. Reuse bottles, jars or plastic vessels to make ideal planters for seeds this summer. The Glasgow Museums collection has plenty of botanical inspiration to help inspire you to make your own mini green house to enhance your green fingers. Why not visit us for inspiration or explore our collections online using Collections Navigator. https://bit.ly/3Aofrs5 #ourclimatestories #deargreenplace
If you have ever visited Glasgow Museums Resource Centre you may have seen our scary spider crab. This huge specimen, which you can see at the beginning of this video, is from Japan, where spider crabs can grow up to 3.8 metres long and live until they are 100 years old! Don’t worry though – you’re not likely to come across this crab scuttling across the beach! They live in the water, at depths of up to 600 metres. That’s about the same as 133 double-decker buses stacked on top of each other! You do get spider crabs here in Scotland, but they are much smaller at up to 50cm wide. They may look scary but spider crabs are actually reported to be gentle creatures. You can make your own spider crab and seaside friends at home using recyclable materials by following the simple instructions below! Recycling household objects instead of putting them in the bin, is one way of doing your bit to help the environment. Glasgow is hosting the Climate Change Conference COP26 this year and we want to inspire sustainability in any little ways we can. You’ll need: an empty egg carton, scissors, glue or sellotape, red paint or felt tips, and pipe cleaners (if you don’t have these you can use strips of fabric and make a jellyfish!). - Cut out one of the egg cups and colour it red. - Cut the pipe cleaners into 8 long strips for legs & claws, plus two short strips. - Make the claws by twisting smaller strips onto the end of a longer piece as the video shows. - Fold the legs and claws into shape and glue or sellotape them inside the egg cup. - Don't forget to draw on a wee face - how is your crab feeling today? Bonus: You can also make some extra friends for your crab - an octopus made from a recycled cardboard tube, and a starfish made from scrap paper using a stippling effect with your paintbrush! Have you had a go at this? Post photos of your underwater friends in the comments below! #ourclimatestories
We are now reopen at reduced capacity. Please ensure you have pre-booked a FREE ticket online to gain entry to the museum. You can book tickets via our website.
