CURRENT EXHIBITION
THE BOOK OF KELLS - SOME MYSTERIES REVEALED
The Book of Kells is a sumptuous illuminated Book of Gospels, created at St Columba’s monastery on Iona around the 750s AD. It is inspirational from Christian, historic and artistic perspectives. This exhibition explores how it has inspired two specific artists and craftspeople: George Bain and Thomas Keyes.

Rosemarkie's Pictish stones were part of the monastic settlement that was flourishing by 700AD

SHARING OUR LOCAL HISTORIES
Our local history collection is rich with photographs and a quirky range of objects and we want to know more about their hidden histories. Can you help us fill in the blanks, identify folk in photos and elaborate on the stories of people, places and past of Rosemarkie and Fortrose?
SHARING THE CREATIVITY OF CELTIC ART
Through the George Bain Collection
We are extremely excited by the news that Groam House Museum has been successful in its application for grants to develop the George Bain Collection. Funding from Museums Galleries Scotland and Creative Scotland is enabling the museum to work with volunteers and specialists to digitise the Collection, develop outreach events, and create an interactive website to promote further study and use around the globe.
BECOME A VOLUNTEER
Groam House Museum is currently recruiting new volunteers to help with the day-to-day running of the museum.
Joining the volunteer team is an excellent way of making friends and enjoying the experience in the museum. There are also special benefits for volunteers, including coffee mornings, concessions, use of the museum library and occasional outings.
