We live in California, so we did everything online - from viewing the pieces using the virtual tool (very effective) to emailing with the gallery owner Tony, who was very responsive. He took care of all the packaging and shipping, and the two pieces arrived safely in California. We look forward to purchasing more from Kilmorack in future!

When I got back to the ship, I realized that I missed 3 of the 11 murals. They are beautifully…read moredrawn & painted, rich with imagery and messages. Looking at photos taken years ago, they remain in excellent condition.

A really simple and informative exhibition with some really effective interactive touches marking it fun for all the family. I very much enjoyed the taxidermy. If you're a stuffed beast enthusiast, you'll find yourself right at home here. The Art Gallery was in the middle of a reshuffle so was closed during my visit, so add a bit extra time for some highland art. Go get your learning on and have a visit.
