For this week’s Mini McManus, look forward to warmer times & our green spaces coming to life. Celebrate spring & create a colourful tissue paper collage, inspired by the blooms you can see in your local park or garden. #minimcmanus #themcmanus #creativelearning #athome #dundee
Now take a look at the original. Did the addition of sound spark your imagination?
Spring has sprung! Why not have a #SlowSunday and take a few minutes to look a bit closer at one of our paintings? The Blackbird Song by Edward Hornel shows a theme frequently depicted by the artist – figures surrounded by lush vegetation.
Our pick for @artukdotorg #OnlineArtExchange, celebrating @LGBTHM is from @mcrartgallery. This costume design for the ballet 'Donald of the Burthens' of 1951 was a collaboration between artists & lifelong partners, Robert MacBryde & Robert Colquhoun. https://t.co/TaD2uLXLPJ
For this week’s #OnlineArtExchange revel in the vibrant colours of this dramatic depiction of Edinburgh’s Salisbury Crags. Alexander Moffat’s ‘The Rock – The Radical Road’ is the artist’s diploma work in the collection of @RoyalScotAcad

Until travel is possible again, we can create a virtual tour inspired by the travels of artists. #ArtHelps #MuseumFromHome
Here’s a sneak peek of work in progress at @djcadmake on 3D models of our #shipmodel collection, for our ship model project funded by @MuseumsGalScot #TechnologyMW #musetech
This is your last week to check out our 5-star Among the Polar Ice exhibition, featuring stunning polar landscapes by Frances Walker and James Morrison.
The exhibition is free, and closes on Sunday 8 March.
Dundee engineer James Guthrie Orchar was a close friend & patron of William McTaggart. He bought this dynamic seascape directly from the artist in 1875. The painting remains in the City, together with the rest of Orchar’s collection, here at The McManus. #FriendsMW #MuseumWeek
