FACES OF BELFAST

Visit Belfast Welcome Centre

Faces Of Belfast is presented in partnership with Atypical Gallery and is an exhibition of nine oil-on-canvas portraits by award-winning local artist Joel Simon. Each portrait is of a Belfast personality who has captured Joel’s imagination and attention through their contribution to the city in 2018. The sitters in this exhibition include Fantastic Beasts actress Jenn Murray; author Glenn Patterson; Kristian Nairn, aka ‘Hodor’ from Game Of Thrones; Belfast drag queen Lady Portia Di’ Monte, and world champion boxer Ryan Burnett.

YUMMERTIME

Until December 2,

The Naughton Gallery at Queen’s Yummertime is a San Francisco-based lifestyle and photography blog co-founded by Brock Williams and Chris Lin, and was originally developed to document their life there. However, it now has a huge following on social media including Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, and Pinterest. This exhibition presents a special collaborative project with Yummertime, focusing on their video and photography projects and exploring how the blog has captured a zeitgeist.
