Through hands-on exploration and creative expression, the students were introduced to multiple forms of printmaking. We are delighted to share the work of this creative collaboration with the community, and we invite you to celebrate these

What was life like in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown over the years?

Storyteller Helena Byrne posed this question to members of local day care centres. Enjoy these stirring memories of trips to the Baths on sunny days, shopping in the much-loved local shops of the past such as Lee’s; and getting dressed up for a Saturday night out in the Top Hat!

This heartwarming exhibition is the culmination of a social history project to collect and preserve reminiscences and recollections of times gone by. A huge thanks to the staff and members of the participating day care centres for sharing their stories
