Want to find to more about women artists in Scotland? We have arranged special guided tours for women to this major new exhibition which features Scottish Women painters and sculptors from 1885-1965. Each visit will feature a guided introductory tour of the exhibition from a gallery staff member, time to see the exhibition yourself then a chance over tea/coffee and some creative discussion and fun activities to share your thoughts and ideas on what you have seen. There are three different groups you can join with: the Edinburgh based Bonnie Fechters women’s history group which is open to new members, a group visit open to all young women aged 16-25 and the Glasgow based GWL Seeing Things group which gives women the opportunity to try out new cultural experiences. Organised in partnership with National Galleries Scotland.
