Book an OnFife museum & galleries or local studies visit

The museum and gallery spaces at Kirkcaldy Galleries & Dunfermline Carnegie Library & Galleries are preparing to open their doors again.

Art-tastic at St Andrews Museum will open as soon as current building work allows. 

Museum visits will still need to be pre-booked, with limited numbers, and will follow the FACTS guidance. Book your visit now.
