Millais in Perthshire
Millais in Perthshire is a private collection of rarely seen artworks and personal belongings of prominent Victorian artist, John Everett Millais (1829-1896) and his Perth-born wife, Euphemia “Effie” Chalmers Gray (1828-1897).

Hands on Art
Hands On Art is Perth Art Gallery’s dedicated interactive space, designed for young children. It fosters exploration, play, and builds confidence in an art gallery environment.

Fergus and Meg: A Creative Partnership
This permanent display showcases a selection of works spanning the long and productive careers of J.D. Fergusson and Margaret Morris. Featuring over 40 works, The Fergusson Collection was previously on display at the Fergusson Gallery.

The Dark Room
For 150 years, before digital cameras, photographs relied on light reacting with chemicals. This created varied styles and looks as techniques improved. Perth Art Gallery’s latest permanent display, The Dark Room, showcases these early methods and celebrates the gallery’s diverse photographic collection.
