Scope and Content
Administrative / Biographical History
The Glasgow School of Art Club was formed under Fra. Newbery in 1885/86 to enable former students access to GSA and allow for informal meetings between staff, former and present students. The Club's activities included exhibitions, "at homes", theatrical productions and the Vacation Prize Scheme, which was developed to encourage sketching and painting in the open during the summer months. The Clubhouse was in Blytheswood Square.
