Donegal Town 550 Exhibition
Donegal Town 550 Exhibition The town that the County takes its name from has a fantastic history to it, and is one that needs to be told, to locals and to visitors particularly in this 550th year. We have created a mobile exhibition which has gathered the last 550 years history of the town, and using artefacts, display units, pop-ups and other tools, tell our story. We were also delighted to have received contributions for our displays from three landmark organisations in Donegal Town, Magee 1866, Hanna Hats, and Donegal Castle. This exhibition will run not only in the museum itself initially over the next two months, but will be taken out and about to community groups, schools, retail outlet, etc., where we can directly inform and educate all, on the history of our historic town. This project was kindly funded through the Donegal Culture & Creativity Project Awards Scheme.
