Send us your photos of stunning Causeway coastline to be part of new Coastal Connections exhibition

Wed, May 10, 2023

Calling all photographers, whether you’re a professional photographer or someone who enjoys taking snaps on your smartphone! Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council’s Arts Service invites you to be a part of the new Coastal Connections exhibition, which will capture our stunning coastline through your eyes.

No matter your ability level, we want your images of the Causeway Coast. The resulting exhibition will be displayed in the Broighter Gallery at Roe Valley Arts & Cultural Centre in Limavady, as well as virtually on our website. We want it to be a vibrant celebration of our unique coastline in all its natural splendour.

To enter, simply take a digital photograph of your favourite coastal scene in the Causeway Coast and Glens area and email it to coastalconnectionsopencall@gmail.com by Monday, 15 May at 5 pm.

Please ensure that your photograph is of high resolution and that you submit no more than two photographs.  In your email, please include your full name, email address or contact number, where and when your photo was taken, and a brief description of what the place means to you (50-word limit).

This activity is part of the Arts Service’s ArtBeat initiative, which focuses on mindfulness and well-being through nature and creativity. The current programme at Roe Valley Arts Centre includes a series of outdoor workshops in creative writing and mindfulness.

This is a fantastic opportunity to showcase your talent and contribute to a celebration of our stunning coastline.
