Supported by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland, the exhibition, which is open until 19th September, showcases life in Northern Ireland from the late 1970’s when The Troubles were rife, through to the transition to a more peaceful political climate. Over 6,000 visitors attended the Out of the Darkness exhibition which was hosted earlier this year at Ormeau Baths Gallery and has been re-opened due to public demand.
