ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
A Journey Through
Conflict to Peace
Opening in June at the ACT Initiative Shankill Road Visitor Centre, Long Kesh Inside Out is a new, interactive and immersive exhibition sharing the prison experiences of Loyalist political prisoners in the 1970s Nissen huts at Long Kesh — and their contributions to peace, community and political activism after their release.
The exhibition is a new addition to the growing number of places in the city where visitors can explore our collective journey through conflict to peace.
Long Kesh Inside Out has been made possible with The National Lottery Heritage Fund, thanks to National Lottery players. Additional support comes from Belfast City Council through their Neighbourhood Regeneration Fund.
