About Now and Then: Dalkeith Palace - VAS Centenary Show

Now and Then: Dalkeith Palace (Part Two) continues a year of centenary celebrations for VAS and will showcase over 540 artworks and 341 artists, making this a record breaking exhibition for the arts charity as it honours its 100th year. The exhibition celebrates 100 years since VAS was established in 1924 and follows the successful 4 star exhibition, Then and Now: 100 Years Of Visual Arts Scotland (Part One) which took place in Edinburgh’s Royal Scottish Academy earlier this year.

Now and Then: Dalkeith Palace will showcase artists from Scotland and beyond, exhibiting a breadth of disciplines across the sprawling 17 room exhibition, including painting, printmaking, photography, sculpture, installation, and jewellery.

The exhibition will run from Saturday 17th - Sunday 25th August 2024 and will be open daily from 10am - 4pm with free access. Dalkeith Palace is located just outside Edinburgh and offers the perfect day trip for tourists wishing to escape the bustle of the Edinburgh Fringe.

Location: Dalkeith Country Park, Via King's Gate, Dalkeith EH22 1ST
