Launching DR STEPHE HARROP’s 2025 Research Creating Storytelling Communities, Growing a Glasgow Scene
From January 2024 to December 2025, we were honoured to work alongside researcher, Dr. Stephe Harrop, of Liverpool Hope University, to explore the role of contemporary storytelling within a Glasgow context.
Funded by Creative Scotland’s National Lottery Extended Fund, the project explored our work to nurture a creative ecosystem rooted in contemporary storytelling, for, among, and with Glasgow’s people and communities.
It is our pleasure to finally share this research with you and to thank Stephe and all the contributors for this amazing report.
