Exhibition launch: Saturday 10 June, 12noon – 1pm. Everyone welcome.

Coleraine artist Elizabeth Johnston is inspired by the rugged North Antrim coastline, in particular, a stretch of thirty-nine miles between Ballycastle and Benone.

Along this famous route Elizabeth uses acrylic paint to sensitively depict the places she loves to visit, while also capturing the ever-changing light and colours of the land and sea. 'Thirty nine' is a collection of iconic and nostalgic scenes showcasing the natural beauty of our Northern Ireland coastline.
