Every Picture Tells A Story opened its doors yesterday, and it's already looking brilliant! 🖼️ We're also chuffed to say we're now open on Saturdays, so there's even more chance to pop in and see it for yourself. See you tomorrow, 10am to 3pm! The exhibition runs until 11th October.
🖼️ New exhibition alert! Every picture tells a story, but you have to look closely to find it. That's exactly what we did with one painting from 1879, and it turned out to hold far more than we expected. The exhibition opens this Thursday and has been put together with @ScottishCanals.
