Athy Travellers Project
An exhibition which will demonstrate aspects of Traveller Culture will take place in February 1999 in the Travellers Club, Athy. This is the result of a 4 month project with the Travellers Women's Group in the town.
The objective of the exhibition is to produce a record of Traveller culture and stories in the South Kildare area, for both the settled and Traveller community.
The exhibition consists of six panels of pictures and written stories, a display on accommodation including a reconstruction of a typical Traveller tent, a craft display and tape on the exhibition.
Action South Kildare and Kildare County Council are pleased to be associated with this important exhibition.
