Govanhill Baths Upvention

The Ensemble Upvention is a new community music project, transforming discarded objects into sounds and music. It’s part upcycling and part performance.
This project also has an international element. S27 in Berlin (www.s27.de/) have loads in common with Govanhill Baths. They’re described as ‘a city laboratory for creative research’ and they’ve been making musical instruments from waste. This project will be part of the exchange we are building with S27. We’ll be linking musical ideas, swapping some of the things we are making and sending field recordings that will become part of the music.
Whether you have existing musical skills or not, your energy and commitment to working in this new team will be very welcome.

About Govanhill Baths:
Govanhill Baths Community Trust’s goal is to reopen the Govanhill Baths as a Wellbeing Centre and to contribute to the wider social, cultural and built regeneration of Govanhill as a community through a range of activities. Govanhill Baths Community Trust was born out of a vibrant and historic community campaign to save the historic baths in 2001 from closure. The community spirit and commitment has resulted in Govanhill Baths being back in community ownership as a vital community asset. The ethos of Govanhill Baths has always been: ‘Run for the community, by the community’. Today it is a social business with effective local partnerships and a commitment to transforming/regenerating our community for the benefit of local people
