I'm delighted to be part of this printmaking exhibition at exciting arts venue Fire Station Creative in Dunfermline - with a great cafe and bar!

About:

A great railway day out!

Make a railway day out of it with ScotRail. Dunfermline is a brilliant visit by train:

- the excellent excellent Carnegie Library & Galleries

- Dunfermline Abbey & Palace

- Pittencrieff Park with its peacocks and playparks, glasshouses and wooded waterfalled glen

- the Andrew Carnegie Birthplace Museum

- great cafes

- great High Street

And more!

How to get there:

Get the train to Dunfermline City station and enjoy a 10-15 minute walk up to the town centre through the hilly green Public Park, or walk the interesting streets past the Alhambra Theatre.

Take your bike?

Or do as I did and get off the train one stop further at Dunfermline Queen Margaret Station and walk or cycle the mile and a half along really nice tree-lined old railway cycle path. You emerge only a short distance from the Fire Station Creative.
