Next stop is Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art
“The first Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art (SNGMA) opened in August 1960 in Inverleith House, a Georgian building set in the middle of Edinburgh’s Royal Botanic Garden…In 1999, the SNGMA’s collection had outgrown the Watson’s premises, and it expanded into the Dean Orphan Hospital, a neoclassical orphanage situated on the other side of Belford Road which had been erected by Thomas Hamilton in 1833…In 2012, National Galleries of Scotland underwent a rebranding exercise, and the two Belford Road galleries were renamed Modern One and Modern Two…A further rebranding was undertaken in 2023, when the organisation’s name was changed to National Galleries Scotland. The names of the individual gallery buildings were also renamed, and the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art is now billed as National Galleries Scotland: Modern.”
Today’s event is – Water of Leith Walkway: a public footpath and cycleway that runs alongside the river of the same name through Edinburgh, Scotland, from Balerno to Leith
