Spent my 28th birthday learning how to spray paint some graffiti with these guys and absolutely loved it! Craig was great and VERY patient with us. All 12 of us had an absolute blast and got some pretty eye opening insights into street art. Would recommend to anyone wanting to do something a little different :)

Small but offering great artists from Scotland and around the world!
I quite enjoy the gallery because the present modern, colourful, "affordable" pieces that you truly could see in your home. Pieces are changing often which is a plus.
The owner is lovely and she will be able to tell you everything about her artists.
A great discovery in the Edinburgh Old Town!

So good to be able to absorb some culture!! Obviously it was time slotted and distanced, with a strict one way route, but in some ways that was positive because it forced us to stop and look at some pieces we might have overlooked. Overall, it did wonders for our wellbeing and was a proper birthday treat outing in these strange times.

It’s a lovely wee photo gallery in the heart of Edinburgh, in the old town. They exhibit photos and offer courses. I’ve visited several times and have had the honour of having a photo of mine exhibited digitally there. I recommend.

I cannot sing the praises of The Red Door Gallery high enough.
Many years ago I bought an Art print from here, had a lovely time & left.
I’ve recently wanted the same print again - years later, but couldn't find it anywhere.
Kathryn the Caped Crusader came to my rescue & not only sourced the prints (I wanted x2) but gathered them to her & posted them on to me.
I’m absolutely ‘cockahoop’.
THAT my friend, is customer service.
