Website | EmailGenerally accepted as Scotland's best gallery for contemporary art, the Fruitmarket should not be missed. It was converted into a museum by architect Richard Murphy in 1992. It is conveniently located in the center of town and adjacent to Waverley Station. Visiting exhibits come from far and wide, with a healthy presence of Scottish artists. The Fruitmarket regularly has showcases of new talent, including the prestigious Becks Futures which is a collaboration with the ICA in London. Talks and events are a must for enthusiasts. If you'd rather just absorb the ambiance, the glass fronted cafe and excellent bookshop are always buzzing.
