An easy-to-shorten day close to the station.
Scottish art beside the railway station / MILNGAVIE
Lillie Art Gallery
Explore a changing selection of paintings, prints, sculpture and other work in a compact gallery close to the station. It provides an indoor contrast to the walks around Milngavie, with a visit that can be as focused or leisurely as the exhibition allows. Look at the current programme before travelling: the permanent collection is not all on display at once.
Before you go
The gallery closes for lunch and may also close between exhibitions. Check the programme before using it as a wet-weather fallback.
The practical details
- Where to find it
- Station Road, Milngavie G62 8BZ
Directions and arrival information ↗ - Tickets and booking
- General admission is free and ordinary visits do not currently need booking. Published hours are Tuesday–Saturday 10am–1pm and 2–5pm; exhibition installation can cause additional closures.
- Access and getting around
- A permanent entrance ramp bypasses steps; the inner doors are heavy and manual. The council-commissioned access guide records level access inside. Ask staff about assistance and the facilities available during your visit.
Official access information ↗ - Visiting with children
- Choose a handful of pictures or objects to discuss, then allow a food or park break. Check dated workshops separately rather than assuming a drop-in activity will run.
