The Scottish National Portrait Gallery closed in Spring 2009 to make way for Portrait of the Nation, our major redevelopment project.

Portrait of the Nation has three main aims:

• to restore and reveal much more of the building than ever before
• to show many more works of art, and introduce a new, regularly changing display programme
• to create first-class education and visitor services

The Portrait Gallery is due to reopen in Autumn 2011.

If you have any questions about the Portrait of the Nation, how it is progressing, or how you can help support it, please contact one of our project team on 0131 624 6248 or on development@nationalgalleries.org.
