a wide range of books and services for all ages. The Art Gallery shows temporary and
longer term exhibitions, many of them featuring selections from our outstanding Scottish
art collection. Be inspired by the paintings of William McTaggart, one of the country’s
greatest artists, and The Scottish Colourists, including many works by S J Peploe.
And why not also take time for refreshments in the Café Wemyss with its stunning
display of pottery?
See highlights from the history of Kirkcaldy in the Moments in Time long-term Museum

harpoon from a whaling ship and a chair made of coal all on display together?! You can
investigate your own history further in our Local and Family History Centre.
The Friends of Kirkcaldy Galleries encourage and promote the
development of the Galleries, in particular the art collection and the
museum, and raise funds in support of these aims. The Friends have
their 25th anniversary this year and have raised well over £100,000 in
funds to support our collections and exhibitions work in that time. If you

KIRKCALDY TAPESTRY PANEL
From 6 July I Daily I Free
Last year Kirkcaldy Galleries was delighted to host the Great Tapestry of Scotland,
drawing huge crowds from across the country. Now a wonderful legacy of this
exhibition goes on display at the Galleries… our very own Kirkcaldy tapestry panel.
Designed by Great Tapestry artist Andrew Crummy and overseen by Dorie Wilkie,
Great Tapestry Stitch Co-ordinator, this embroidery was stitched by the public during
the exhibition and completed by a team of dedicated volunteers in subsequent months.
The result is a stunning record of Kirkcaldy’s history, and a testament to the hard work
of many hundreds of volunteers – thank you everybody!
‘Great to have the opportunity to be part of the bigger picture.’

3 september – 26 February 2017 I Daily I Free Admission
The Queensferry Crossing is fast nearing completion – so what better time than
now to celebrate the iconic bridges across the Forth, examples of three centuries of
engineering excellence? In a unique partnership with Deep Sea World, we have created
spAn – A Tale of Three Bridges, an exhibition which mixes stunning historic images
with family-friendly hands-on fun.
The show will tell the stories of the Forth Rail Bridge, the Forth
Road Bridge and the new Queensferry Crossing. You can learn
about the bold Victorians who risked their lives to create the
magnificent rail bridge – a wonder of the age. What about
the ‘spider men’ of the road bridge – how did they gain that
nickname? And how close did we come to having a tunnel
under the Forth, rather than the new crossing?
All the family can get hands-on too, with lots of interactive fun.
There is a giant snakes and ladders game, a sea monster magnetic
mix-up, a massive jigsaw, dressing up and quizzes. Everything
will be bridge-themed and will therefore inspire any budding
engineers in the family.

ALISON KINNAIRD
INSTALLATION
3 October 2016 – 8 January 2017
Daily I Free
Alison Kinnaird has an international
reputation as an artist working in
glass. This installation of glass
soldiers is her response to the
present state of conflict in so many
parts of the world, and the fact that
we never seem to learn from the
experiences of the past. Making
references to the Terracotta Army
of the Chinese Emperors, the
installation has been touring the
country in association with Poppy
Scotland.
Comments from visitors
‘Utterly beautiful and moved to tears.’
‘Unknown is the most moving piece
of war art that we have seen.’

The Glasgow Boys
A spirit of rebellion

Linked by friendship and a shared desire to rebel against the artistic traditions of late 19th

The exhibition looks at the evolving style of the Glasgow Boys and their impact on the art
world. Included are works from our collection by leading members of the group and many
others associated with it, including Arthur Melville, John Lavery, E A Hornel, George Henry,

EXQUISITE CORPSE
17 september – 19 november I Free
A selection of works from Scottish Society of Artists
Exquisite corpse (cadavre exquis, the original French term) is a
method by which words or images are collectively assembled,
each collaborator adding to a composition in sequence. The
technique was invented by surrealists and is similar to an old
parlour game called Consequences. Surrealism principal founder
André Breton reported that it started in fun, but became playful
and eventually enriching.
The exhibition has been curated by Katharine Aarrestad and Paul
Charlton of the Society of Scottish Artists who have asked SSA
artists to respond to a piece of 'surreal' text they have created,
in the same vein as the original 1920s game Exquisite Corpse
prompted the original surrealist artists such as André Breton,
Joan Mirò, Max Ernst, Salvador Dali and Rene Magritte.
Come and see how this ‘creative game’ plays out...
ThingIsm
3 December 2016 – 25 February 2017 I Daily I Free
presented by Fife Contemporary Art & Craft as part of their 10th
anniversary season.
ThingIsm is the first solo exhibition by Scottish Indian artist Jasleen
Kaur, currently based in London. Originally studying jewellery she
was awarded the Jerwood Makers Open in 2015. She is however
not easily categorised as a craft artist since her practice now
involves making through a range of media more usually identified
with visual art.
The exhibition will feature a series of short films including a new
commission and sculptural works exploring the artist’s dual
heritage such as the busts made for the Jerwood Makers Open
and her unique Cairns touch lamps, commissioned by the BALTIC
Centre for Contemporary Art.

Methil Heritage Centre is a community museum lying in the heart of Levenmouth, an
area stretching from Leven to the Wemyss villages, and from Kennoway to the shores
of the River Forth. Located in a former Post Office, the centre hosts a programme of
changing exhibitions and events, as well as a tearoom and shop.
The long term display, Levenmouth Lives, offers a flavour of the rich heritage of the
area. Evidence of life in early times can be seen by the Pictish carvings in the Wemyss
Caves. In more recent times the village of Buckhaven had the second largest fishing
fleet in Scotland and Methil was the most important port in Scotland for shipping coal
that came from the many mines in Fife.
The Methil Heritage Friends also organise events and activities.
