Information for Local Authorities & other Organisations

The Travelling Gallery tours 2 exhibitions each year and each tour lasts approximately 16 weeks. Tours generally run February to June and August to December.

The Gallery usually visits one venue each day, and venues might include schools and colleges or community and public venues. Each exhibition is accompanied by an education programme, which includes gallery talks, education packs, exhibition booklets and artist-led workshops.

The gallery can be booked for a minimum of 1 week (5 days Mon to Fri or Tues to Sat), at a cost of around £500 + VAT per week. (It is occasionally possible to book the Travelling Gallery for individual days at a daily cost if the itinerary allows. Please call for further details.)

Details of future tours are usually distributed to Local Authorities and other groups/relevant organisations around May and October each year. If you would like to be added to our database to receive these mailings, please email us at travgal@edinburgh.gov.uk or give Vicky a call on 0131 529 3930.
