In a landmark decision set to redefine Scotland's cultural landscape, Jupiter Artland, the internationally acclaimed sculpture park, has announced it will transition to a year-round opening schedule. This move marks a significant departure from its traditional seasonal operation, allowing art and nature enthusiasts to experience its wonders in every season.
Nestled within the historic 120-acre estate of Bonnington House, just a short journey from Edinburgh, Jupiter Artland is more than just a gallery; it's a immersive fusion of art and the natural world. The park boasts a world-class collection of over 35 permanent site-specific sculptures from some of the most celebrated artists of our time.
A Permanent Destination for Art in Nature
Visitors can now plan their trips without the constraint of a closing date, discovering monumental works by iconic figures such as Anish Kapoor, Antony Gormley, and Cornelia Parker, all seamlessly integrated into the rolling Scottish countryside. The park's decision ensures that the ever-changing backdrop of spring blooms, summer greens, autumn golds, and winter frosts becomes a permanent part of the artistic experience.
More Than Just a Walk in the Park
Jupiter Artland offers a deeply engaging day out. Beyond the spectacular outdoor exhibits, the experience includes access to the historic Bonnington House and its beautifully curated interior galleries, which host a dynamic programme of temporary exhibitions. The on-site Jupiter Project Space and a dedicated Learning Studio further cement its status as a hub for creativity and education, making it a perfect destination for families, art students, and tourists alike.
The park's commitment to accessibility and providing a unique, year-round cultural offering in Scotland is a welcome development for the arts and tourism sectors, promising to attract visitors from across the UK and beyond throughout the entire year.
