Photographs by Ron McCormick.

We are pleased to announce our next exhibition.

We invite you all down to the Clwb Ffoto HQ at Newport Arcade on April 26th from 6pm for the opening night.

The exhibition will run for 6 weeks, until June 7th.

The British obsession with the seaside lives on in the valleys towns of South Wales. Whether it is Barry Island or Benidorm, the ordinary folks of Wales show a compelling desire to have a great day out, and maybe, a night on the tiles. Doing it with your mates and the chance to dress up is an added bonus.

Photographs include “Tredegar girls nights out”, “the cult of Elvis” and “a family day at the seaside” overlaid with a whiff of hedonistic celebration that echoes the extravagant indulgence of Bognor, Brighton and Blackpool.

See you on the 26th.
