The Maclaurin Gallery • February 4, 2025
This is our first exhibition of 2025 and it's already off to a flying start, despite having to cancel their preview event due to storm Eowyn.
We are however holding a MEET THE ARTIST event on SUNDAY 16 FEBRUARY 2025 at 2pm.
This is a wonderful opportunity to see some of your favourite artists from Ayr Sketch Club as well as meeting new ones.
They will be around to answer your questions and chat, while you see the show.
This is a free event, open to all and refreshments are provided.
Just come along and enjoy!
Saturday 20 June - Sunday 30 August 2026 Founded in 1826, the Royal Scottish Academy supports art and architecture in Scotland. It is an independent, non-governmental institution, governed by Members to operate on a charitable basis.
We were delighted to host the Private View for Visual Arts Scotland on Saturday afternoon and what a turn out it was! This exhibition FUTURE FOLKLORE: THE ART AND CRAFT OF STORYTELLING has over 300 pieces of contemporary art on display and, as a result, we also had a very busy Private View! The exhibition was opened by Chair of the Maclaurin Trust, John Walker, along with Amanda Airey, Trustee of Visual Arts Scotland. Visual Arts Scotland supports over 1400 artists and makers in and around Scotland and we are very fortunate that VAS brings this major show across to Ayrshire. Please take advantage of it being right here on your doorstep! As always, entry is free to the gallery and all artworks for sale. Keep an eye out for some of our Ayrshire artists taking part as well.
Coming Soon from VISUAL ARTS SCOTLAND Private View: Saturday 28 March 2026 2pm. Exhibition Runs: Sunday 29 March - Wednesday 27 May
