About Carving out Connections: Scotland’s Rock Art

Listed Under Exhibitions Events / Arts and Crafts Events / History Events

An exhibition celebrating rock art that has been discovered across Scotland will open on selected dates at Aberdour Castle from Saturday 5 October to Wednesday 8 January. ‘Carving Out Connections: Scotland’s Rock Art’ draws on the Historic Environment Scotland (HES) archives, looking to trace its connections through time and place.

Rock art is one of the most fascinating and mysterious aspects of Scotland’s past. Rock art refers to images, symbols, and marks that have been painted or engraved onto natural rock surfaces. People have been creating rock art across the world for thousands of years. It can be found deep within caves, in rock shelters, and on outcrops and boulders in the open landscape.

The exhibition is only accessible via a staircase.
