Burns Squared

Burns Squared

A fundraising exhibition of work by local artists, inspired by Robert Burns and organised by the Friends of Robert Burns Birthplace Museum.

The Friends of Robert Burns Birthplace Museum are delighted to relaunch Burns Squared following an extended break after the pandemic. You may remember our very successful exhibitions in 2017 and 2019!

This is an open exhibition, with no judging or selection panel — a great opportunity for any artist, crafter, or maker to display their work throughout November at the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum.

All works must relate to Robert Burns — his image, his poems, or an Alloway landmark such as the Auld Brig, Burns Monument, the Auld Kirk, or the Birthplace Cottage — and may be in any medium. However, no work may exceed 25cm x 25cm.

Any works offered for sale will be subject to a commission, which will be donated to the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum by the Friends of the RBBM.
