With restoration work at Darlington Library underway we’re looking forward to the gallery in Darlington Library reopening in 2023. The gallery shared four exhibitions last year between June and December 2021, including work by Jonny Lancaster, Dawn Broughton, The Darlington Association of Photographers and Dover Art Prize 2019 winning artist, Bethan Maddocks, before the restoration programme began.
