Event Details

King Billy Was A Slave Trader is an exhibition of work by Julie Corcoran based on research begun during her two week artist residency at the Bristol Folkhouse Darkroom in January, supported by Cavan Arts Office.
This groundbreaking exhibition will shed new light on recent evidence uncovered about King Billy’s role as governor of the Royal African Company (RAC) following a transfer of shares from Edward Colston and asks that the OPW update visitor information at the Battle of the Boyne Visitor Centre to reflect this.
