Come join us at the Gallery of Modern Art for a late opening marking the end of John Akomfrah’s _Mimesis: African Soldier_ , a film installation shown across three screens. It reflects on the experience of soldiers from across the Commonwealth in World War 1, and aims to highlight the significant contribution of over six million African, Caribbean and South Asian people from across former colonies who fought, served, and died in the war.

Activities will include a performance by Ruth Ese Ighorae, _"Between the Lines"_, and an accompanying exhibition of works in collaboration with Tyguepaulo Gacita. Across generations and form from Akomfrah's "Mimesis: African Soldier", "Between the Lines" asks similar questions. What happens to artists of colours still waiting to be seen? Who gets remembered, who is left out, and what does that do to us?

In the top floor Studio, members of Glasgow Museums' Intercultural Youth Group will lead Our Glasgow, a workshop inspired by "Glasgow_ Past and Present_, 1975", by John T. Thomson in _Still Glasgow_ (Gallery 3). Participants will be invited to create their own reflection of the Glasgow they grew up in and know, including places that highlight our diverse cultural society and businesses that have flourished in our communities.
