Welcome to the Dunkeld Art Exhibition Website   26 August 2010

Dunkeld Cathedral

For over 30 years, the Dunkeld Art Exhibition, has been running for 10 weeks every summer to raise money for the upkeep of Dunkeld Cathedral. Artists from all over the UK show paintings, prints and sculptures and the exhibition attracts some 10,000 visitors each year. Successful artists of varying styles have found it to be a ready market for their works. The exhibition takes a 25% commission from the sales and, as a result, has been able to contribute regularly each year over GBP 10,000 to these funds.

The exhibition takes over the 19th century Gothic Parish Hall, the Duchess Anne Hall, which provides an attractive venue for some 400 works of art at any one time. Dunkeld is a well-known visitor centre and stopping-off point and the grouse and salmon seasons add to the number of interested art lovers. The Duchess Anne Hall is in the centre of Dunkeld at the Cross.

The Invited Artist

Each year one or two artists are asked to provide a special exhibition of their work. For the 2010 Exhibition Liz Myhill and Peter McDermott have been invited.

The Exhibition will remain open for 1 more week. If you have any queries, please e-mail david.sonja@ukonline.co.uk
