The Royal Ulster Academy is an artist led organisation established to educate the public on traditional and contemporary approaches to visual art through its exhibition and education programme. It was originally founded as The Belfast Rambler’s Sketching Club in 1879, became the Ulster Academy of Arts in 1930, and finally the Royal Ulster Academy in 1956.
The Tom Caldwell Gallery is one of the oldest art galleries in Ireland. Although the gallery was founded in 1969, it is part of a much older furnishing/interiors business which was established in 1946.
