More about

The Auld Kirk is one of the oldest buildings in Kirkintilloch. Built in 1644 as Saint Mary's Church, it is Category A listed. There is a full programme of temporary exhibitions throughout the year. Most of the paintings held by the Auld Kirk Museum are of a topographical nature relating to East Dunbartonshire. Arthur Griffith was a commercial artist who painted fairy and fantasy paintings for his own pleasure. They are characterised by attention to detail and sureness of hand. Any painting not on display may be viewed by appointment.
