Art
Exhibition
Ballycastle
Women's Art Group are presenting their forthcoming Art Exhibition
on Saturday 5th August at 9.00p.m. in the Resource Centre
Gallery, Main Street, Ballycastle. This year is the
biggest yet from the vibrant and active group. Eighteen
artists are exhibiting 60 works including scenes from the
North West wild and wonderful sea coast - hence
the title of works ‘TONNTA' (waves).
The
group continues to expand each year. Two new artists
have joined us this year – Lucia O'Connell and Loretta Munnelly.
Artists exhibiting are the following:
Mary Delaney, Rita Langan, Carmel Tighe, Lucia O'Connell,
Mauretti Uí Fhlatharta, Isthar, Maeve Dunne, Ann O'Gorman,
Una Connolly, Lorraine Gray, Margaret Murray, Hazel Kneafsey,
Sue Kneafsey, Sally Bourke, Cath Doores, Sue Upton, Florrie
McBrien and Áine Connor (tutor).
The
Exhibition will be launched by Cllr. Jarlath Munnelly, Killala.
This year's exhibition has to be confined to the local group
due to the large amount of work. Open invitation on
exhibition evening, with wine reception. All Welcome.
The
group wish to thank the following for their advice, support
and funding: Marian Flannery (Women of the North West),
Moy Valley Resources and Mayo V.E.C.
A
very special word of thanks to our tutors – Bernie Garvey
O'Meara in '05 and Áine Connor who has guided us since
our first exhibition in 1997. We thank Ballycastle
Development Company for the use of the gallery during the
year. Thanks also to Ballycastle Women's Group for
the use of their facilities and to Sue Upton for doing all
the invitations and flyers.
Come
along and enjoy the evening.
