A new art exhibition goes on display at the Manx Museum today (22), exploring tourism in Douglas from the 1950s - 70s.
'Day For Night - A Season in Douglas' showcases the works of Martin Hearne, and his visual transformation of Douglas during summer.
Martin says the paintings are a celebration of the now all but vanished mass tourism of the Island he remembers from the 50s to the 70s.
The exhibition is open daily from 9:30am-4:30pm, and all the artworks are available to purchase.
