Balbriggan Gospel Choir was founded in 2018 with the aim of bringing people together and to connect through the medium of music. Their repertoire consists of well-known popular songs in their own Balbriggan gospel style. Under the expert tutelage of Musical Director Dave Flood, their performance on Culture Night in Balbriggan Library promises to be a very memorable and enjoyable experience. All welcome! No booking necessary
My Little Album of Balbriggan with Tarsila Krüse
Time: 6:00pm – 7:00pm
Inspired by Tarsila’s book with Juliette Saumande, My Little Album of Ireland, children will make their own little albums (small, folded zines), which they can fill up with their favourite things about their wonderful town - Balbriggan. The workshop is a wonderful way to capture memories and get creative together, while using a cúpla focail too! Suitable for children aged 6 – 12. Booking via Balbriggan Library
History of the Balbriggan Courthouses with Local Historian David Sorsenson
Time: 6:45pm – 7:45pm
Balbriggan Courthouse has been a dominant feature of George's Square for more than 170 years. However, to date very little information on its history has been placed in the public domain. David’s presentation traces several courthouses in Balbriggan, with emphasis on the current building, looking at how and why it came to be built on its present site. A sample of some of the court cases held in the building, both minor and serious, will be examined. This event is suitable for adults. Booking via Balbriggan Library
