GHC Community Showcase Programme
The Glasgow Hobby Clan (GHC) Community Showcase Programme is designed to promote miniature painting and strengthen Scotland’s tabletop community by bringing the hobby directly into local stores and venues. GHC exists to make the hobby accessible, social, and inspiring — creating spaces where painters of all levels, from complete beginners to experienced artists, can connect, share skills, and feel part of a wider creative community.

What Is a GHC Community Showcase Programme?
The GHC Community Showcase Programme is an in-store display and engagement initiative designed to promote miniature painting and introduce new hobbyists to the Glasgow Hobby Clan. It is not a competition or formal workshop, but a light, welcoming presence featuring painted miniatures, dioramas, and conversation. The goal is to inspire customers, showcase the creativity within the hobby, and foster connections between local venues and the broader painting community.
