Testimonial Sean Lynch:
“ I have regularly used the Gallery of Photography as a base for the production of my photographs since 2008, when I was awarded the artist bursary and exhibition award there. Since then, I have presented work throughout Europe and North America, with the gallery’s careful assistance and expertise all the time allowing for high end presentation.
The resource is, in my view, Ireland’s premier digital studio and should be full acknowledged now and into the future as a vital and important national resource.”
