Opening

Parallel Lands | Group Exhibition at Artlink

25/01/2026 - 22/02/2026

10:30 am - 4:30 pm

Artlink
Fort Dunree, Buncrana, Donegal, F93 C424

Join us for the opening of Parallel Lands, an exhibition that brings together new works by Newfoundland artists Michael Flaherty, Susan Furneaux, and Kym Greeley, curated by Philippa Jones. This exhibition is part of the international partnership between Artlink (Donegal, Ireland) and CRUX (Newfoundland, Canada), exploring the deep connections between Ireland and Newfoundland — lands divided by the Atlantic, yet bound by parallel histories of settlement, loss, resilience, and belonging.
Through ceramics, fibre, and sculptural works, the artists respond to their residencies in Ireland, where they gathered stories, materials, and inspiration.

Ramelton Art Group | Group Exhibition at Regional Cultural Centre

Regional Cultural Centre
Cove Hill, Port Road, , Letterkenny, Co. Donegal, F92 C8HD

The Ramelton Art Group, founded by Mary Lynch in 2019, meets weekly in Ramelton Town Hall, where creativity and community come together.

Working mainly in oil on canvas, the group’s exhibition also includes a selection of pastel works. The paintings range from realistic to abstract, capturing landscapes and skyscapes that stretch from Donegal to Cork — scenes that have sparked both imagination and emotion among the artists.
