The Hamilton Gallery is an art galleryinSligo, Ireland.[2] It hosts a continuous programme of solo and group exhibitions by contemporary visual artists.[3]

History[edit]

1910 photograph of Sligo; the building that currently houses the Hamilton Gallery is at centre, above the car.

The gallery was founded in 2010 by local artist Martina Hamilton, and is sited in a Victorian building on Castle Street.[4]

In 2018, the Hamilton Gallery hosted responses to the W. B. Yeats poem "An Irish Airman Foresees His Death," to mark the centenary of the end of the First World War.[5]

An exhibition of 2019–20 commememorated the life and work of Eva Gore-Booth.[6] Another 2020 show responded to Bram Stoker, whose mother was from Sligo.[7]

In 2022 it hosted a short film created for the St Brigid's Day global Irish festival of 2022, with a poem by Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin.[8]

Other local artists have also exhibited at the Hamilton, such as Seán Larkin, Cathy Carman, Helen O'Toole, Heidi Wickham, Naomi Draper and Mark Garry.[9][10][11][12][13][14]
