Welcome to Timespan Museum and Arts Centre - a vibrant meeting place between our past and our future; linking culture, heritage, the arts, people and their ideas.
Timespan is situated in the centre of Helmsdale, Sutherland - the largest, but least populated, area of the Highlands. It comprises an award winning museum, art gallery, Story Telling Room, riverside café, shop and riverside garden of Scottish herbs and flowers.
Helmsdale is a picturesque village on the east coast of Sutherland with harbours, coastal and riverside walking trails and boasts one of the best salmon rivers in the North. When exploring the Highlands our gallery and museum are a must see on your trip through Sutherland.
