Glasgow Film Theatre is to publish a free e-book called For All featuring new writing from Janice Galloway, Ewan Morrison and other writers, animators and musicians.
Funded by Creative Scotland's Promoting Equalities Programme (PEP), and published by Ringwood Publishing, the book is the end product of GFT's 'For All' project, which began in 2013.
The project's aim was to explore equalities and access within GFT.
Ten writers were commissioned to produce new work inspired by what the notion of 'for all' meant to them. T
he writers are Janice Galloway, Bernard MacLaverty (pictured), Ewan Morrison, Tawona Sithole, Robin Yassin-Kassab, Eleanor Thom, Matthew Fitt, Nalini Paul, Cathy MacPhail, and Alison Irvine.
The e-book will be available to download on the GFT website at www.glasgowfilm.org/forall, and at ringwoodpublishing.com/for-all/
For the first time, Southbank Centre's cross arts festival, Alchemy, will be launched in Glasgow.
Featuring music, dance and literature, Alchemy Glasgow will explore the cultural connections between the UK, India and Pakistan.
Alchemy Glasgow will run between 21 and 24 May and will celebrate contemporary, classical, folk and traditional styles and is a partnership between Celtic Connections and Southbank Centre, in association with the British Council and Creative Scotland.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.Â
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.Â
That is invaluable.Â
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
