From July 2019 to July 2020, as part of our 50th anniversary celebrations, we will be visiting all Go Industrial museums.
We will bring along some of the most interesting items from our collection that tie in with each host museum. This means no two displays will be completely the same and some will be wildly different.
From foghorns to lanterns and ganseys to sail canvas, come and see the vast range of interesting items the Scottish Fisheries Museum has to offer.
To keep up with the Go Industrial Tour events and other Scottish Fisheries Museum 50th anniversary plans follow us on Facebook and Twitter: @scotfishmuseum and Instagram: scottishfisheriesmuseum.

The latest exhibition in the Merchant’s Room is an evocation of the East Neuk by Yolande Kenny. With pen and watercolour, Yolande With pen and watercolour, Yolande celebrates both the museum’s 50th anniversary and everyday life in the East Neuk.
To celebrate the museum’s 50th anniversary, we focus on the last 50 years of the fishing industry charting the changes to the fleets, the harbours, the livelihoods and the lives of those who work to put fish on our tables.
With this exhibition we travel through time to discover the history that lies hidden all around us and in the earth beneath our feet.
As part of a series of events and exhibitions designed to celebrate the Museum’s anniversary year we are holding an exhibition of the Museum’s development over the last 50 years
