At the Dovecot Gallery today – 24 Doors of Advent

The Dovecot Gallery is taking part in 24 Doors of Advent organised by Edinburgh’s Christmas today. It will be open from 10.30am to 5.30pm and entry is free.

Dovecot has a long, varied history and is an integral part of Edinburgh’s cultural landscape. The site of the building dates back to a medieval hospital which inspired the street’s name, although it is best known for its use in recent history as a Victorian swimming baths. The restored Victorian baths now house Dovecot Gallery which is a landmark centre for contemporary art, craft and design built around a leading international tapestry studio.

Dovecot is then closed from 23 December 2016 until 7 January.
