About

We're delighted to welcome the Royal Ulster Academy back to Ulster Museum for the 142nd Annual Exhibition of Art.

The Royal Ulster Academy is the most enduring body of practicing visual artists in Northern Ireland, and its annual exhibition is one of the highlights of the Northern Ireland arts calendar. The 142nd art exhibition contains over 300 artworks that use a diverse range of materials to create an inspiring variety of artwork by both local artists and artists from across the globe.

Founded in 1879, the Royal Ulster Academy of Arts is the largest and longest established body of practising visual artists in Northern Ireland. One of its founding principles is to organise, promote or join in organising and promoting in any fashion an Annual Exhibition of work by both members and non–members.

This exhibition is on display in Gallery 6 right now until Tuesday 2nd January 2024. Free to attend and no booking necessary!
