Exhibition: 50th Anniversary of Bantry Library

In addition to this exhibition, we will also host a discussion about the origins of the library with Harry Wallace, original Project Architect, and original contractors from Murnane & OʼShea Building Contractors, Jerry ‘Jer’ OʼSullivan and John OʼNeill along with Donal Hunt who was the M&OS workshop foreman. This event will be chaired by architect and Bantry native Dermot Harrington. Dermot has published Bantry Library: Bantry’s Brutalist Bibliotheque, an architectural archive celebrating Bantry Library’s fiftieth anniversary. This conversation will take place on Friday 19 July at 5pm.
