The Western Light Art Gallery

The Western Light Art Gallery is on Achill Island in County Mayo, off the Atlantic coast and long a draw for painters attracted by its cliffs, bogland and changing light.

The gallery shows and sells work by artists connected with Achill and the west of Ireland, so visitors can view the collection and take a piece home. It fits neatly into a day exploring the island’s beaches, the Atlantic Drive and Keem Bay, and offers a welcome indoor stop when the weather turns.
