1916: Weaving Public & Private Narratives

A dynamic, multi-media reflection on the people and events of 1916 and its legacy. Curated exhibitions of photos, diaries, aural recordings, video, ephemera, and more, from the National Archives, National Library, and National Museum of Ireland and RTÉ Archives, alongside ‘found’ objects from private collections. Accompanied by expert narrative, these objects tell the stories surrounding the armed insurrection that took place in Ireland during Easter Week 1916.

Ireland Inspiring brings this record back to the rest of the collections.
