Description:

Claremorris Historical Society will host a special double event in Claremorris Town Hall on Culture Night 2026, which takes place on Friday 18th September.

From 4.30 to 7.30 the images featured in its recent presentation entitled ‘Through the streets of Claremorris 1900-1925’ will be on exhibition in the Town Hall Studio.

This exhibition marks the recent publication of the 1926 Census allowing the viewer to step back in time and experience life in Claremorris as it was in the first quarter of the twentieth century, just before the census was taken.

This will be followed at 7.45 in the main hall by an illustrated talk entitled ‘Images of Claremorris 1926-1960’. For this special bilingual event dozens of photographs of people, shops and streetscapes from the Main Street Gathering archives have been carefully restored in full colour by Andrew Newman. Local historian Colmán Ó Raghallaigh will present the fascinating stories behind each of them.

Cuirfidh Cumann Staire Chlár Chlainne Mhuiris ócáid dhúbailte speisialta ar fáil don phobal i Halla Baile Chlár Chlainne Mhuiris ar Oíche Chultúir 2026, Dé hAoine, an 18 Meán Fómhair.

Idir 4.30 agus 7.30, beidh na híomhánna a cuireadh i láthair le déanaí, dar teideal ‘Trí shráideanna Chlár Chlainne Mhuiris 1900-1925’, ar taispeáint i Stiúideo an Halla Baile.

Tá an taispeántas seo á reáchtáil chun foilsiú dhaonáireamh na bliana 1926 a chomóradh. Tig leat dul siar sa stair agus blaiseadh den saol i gClár Chlainne Mhuiris mar a bhí sé sa chéad ráithe den fhichiú haois, díreach sula ndearnadh an daonáireamh.

Ina dhiaidh sin, ar 7.45 sa phríomh halla, tabharfar caint léirithe dar teideal ‘Íomhánna de Chlár Chlainne Mhuiris 1926-1960’. Don ócáid speisialta dátheangach seo, tá athchóiriú lándaite déanta ag Andrew Newman ar 65 ghrianghraf de dhaoine, de shiopaí agus de radharcanna sráide ó chartlann an ‘Main Street Gathering’. Cuirfidh an staraí áitiúil Colmán Ó Raghallaigh na scéalta suimiúla a bhaineann le gach ceann acu i láthair.

Beidh cead isteach saor in aisce agus fáilte roimh chách.
