History
Winnifried Lydia Barrowman (born 27/10/1895) began attending Drawing and Painting classes at the Glasgow School of Art in 1912 when she was 17. She continued to attend Day Classes in Drawing and Painting until 1918. In 1915, Winnifried assisted with the Belgian Tryst, a fundraiser to aid Belgian Refugees organised by Staff and Students of the GSA on the weekend of 29th January. She assisted in the Belgium Market on Stall 5 convened by Mrs Cairns. In her last year, she attained the Robert Hart Bursary of £10 which was awarded to students born in Glasgow from "lower means backgrounds". A stipulation was that the successful students must attend five day classes a week, meaning that Winnifried was a full time Art Student. In the same year, she was also awarded the Renfrew School Board Bursary of £2. Winnifried had a sister, Christina, who also attended the Glasgow School of Art between 1903 and 1913. They both lived in Maneswood, Glasgow.
