CVCC Merritt Hall Gallery to Feature Images of Ireland

 

Lynchburg, VA /Media Release/11/05/09 –“From Dublin to Ballylinny,” an exhibition of photographs and paintings of Ireland, will open at the Merritt Hall Gallery of Central Virginia Community College on Friday, November 6, and remain until the end of December. An opening reception will be held on Friday, November 13, from 5:30 p.m until 8:00 p.m.

The work reflects the travels of a number of CVCC faculty, staff, and friends as they journeyed from Dublin to the Antrim Coast in May 2009. Along the way they captured the streets of Dublin, the beauty of the Irish countryside, ancient monuments, the Northern Ireland towns with their visible history of “The Troubles,” the Antrim Coast, Rathlin Island, Giant’s Causeway, and more. The photographs are in color, for the most part, and reveal the intense green and great natural beauty of the Irish landscape.

The reception at Merritt Hall on Friday, November 13, from 5:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. is free and open to the public. During the month, the gallery is open during regular college hours.
