Objects, War and Memory in Ireland Past and Present

Most of us keep objects that remind us of loved ones or important moments in our lives. Now, a new exhibition showcases some of the precious things that refugees have brought with them to Ireland, and the moving stories of courage, resilience, love and hope that these objects tell. Alongside these, objects from Kilmainham Gaol’s collections reveal resonances between the experiences of refugees today and experiences of war, oppression and loss in Ireland’s recent past.
