The aim of the programme is to encourage families to travel to the City Centre and to enjoy the many family oriented cultural activities on offer. Whether your interests are in the arts, culture, heritage, music or drama or simply in good shopping and market experiences there must be something in the programme to interest you.
Brighten up these dreary winter days by visiting the City Centre and experiencing the City at its best.

Songs from the North Lotts, Book Launch - 23.10.09_21
Songs from the North Lotts is a fabulous collection of songs written and performed by Paul O'Brien, who grew up in East Wall and who now lives in the Netherlands.
Paul's songs are beautifully crafted words and music based on the strong traditons of the community of East Wall and North Dock.
East Wall is a wonderful community wedged between the city & the sea. The maritime tradition and labour history of the area and community are celebrated in the songs and images of this work thus preserving the previously undocumented history of Dublin’s East Wall.
I would like to extend my congratulations to Paul and the local community for their very successful collaboration in this fine production.

Twelve Days in May - The last days of James Connolly
Twelve days in May is a play by Frank Allen, and will be staged in the Liberty Hall Theatre from 9th to 28th November. I recently hosted a pre-publicity launch for the play in the Mansion House.
The play is directed by Peter Reid and has an impressive cast of professional actors.
This play is a must for anyone seriously interested in Labour History. The play also provides an important insight into the development of women's rights in the early 20th century.
I would urge everybody to make it their business to attend this play.
