Art In Print

The gallery sits in Kinghorn, a modest coastal town in Fife that doesn't shout about itself. Art In Print does exactly what the name suggests - it's a proper showcase for printmaking in all its forms, from etchings and lithographs to screen prints and woodcuts. Walk in and you'll find work by contemporary and established artists who actually know their craft, which is refreshing when so much gallery space gets filled with whatever's trendy that week.

The scale works in its favour. It's not overwhelming, so you can spend a genuine hour looking properly rather than shuffling through rooms in a daze. Printmaking has a technical rigour that appeals to anyone interested in how art actually gets made, not just what the finished piece looks like. If your kids are old enough to sit still and look at things, they'll probably find it interesting. Very young children might get restless.

You won't need to book your entire holiday around it, but if you're staying at one of the caravan parks nearby - Kinghorn Harbour, Kingdom, or Sandhills are all within striking distance - it's worth an afternoon visit. Kinghorn itself has a decent coastline and a working harbour, so you can combine it with a proper walk along the shore. The exact opening hours and admission fees aren't published online, so ring ahead or check in with the local visitor information. It's the sort of place that rewards turning up with a bit of notice rather than assuming it'll be open on a Tuesday afternoon.
