WELCOME
Contemporary art in Northern Ireland thrives in a wide variety of locations, from large scale galleries like The MAC, the Golden Thread Gallery and the Ulster Museum in Belfast, the F E McWilliam Gallery & Studio in Banbridge and the Millennium Court Arts Centre in Portadown, to smaller spaces such as Artisann and the Crescent Arts Centre in Belfast, and the Battletown Gallery and Georgian Gallery in Newtownards. There are numerous galleries, workshops, artists’ studios and open spaces such as the Belfast Cathedral Quarter and Laganside now devoted to painting, sculpture, photography, printmaking, performance and installations.
