This excellent free exhibition Words on the Wave @NMIreland is extended until Mon 27 Oct! Truly beautiful manuscripts from the Abbey of St Gall, Switzerland - home to early Irish monks. Some of these are in Ireland for the first time in 1000 yrs alongside other fab artefacts. Go!

@pmokane Glad to hear you enjoyed your visit to the Changing Ireland Galleries- did you pick a favorite artifact and what did it make you think about Ireland?

Rory Gallaher’s guitar 🎸, slippers worn by Michael Collins, and a dress worn by an Irish Hospital Sweepstakes employee in the 1930s.

Highly recommend the new exhibition @NMIreland Collins Barracks. #IrishHistory
