Beacon of Light | Greg Hallahan at St. Brigid’s Cathedral and Round Tower

Event Details

Exhibition continues 12th August  – 30th September 2025.
Presented across both St Brigid’s Cathedral and the Round Tower, the exhibition honours the legacy of Brigid, celebrating her enduring presence as a figure of inspiration, compassion, and hope. The Cathedral showcases the original artworks within its sacred setting, while the Round Tower hosts an immersive display of illuminated replicas featuring imagery of Brigid. Installed across its nine windows and within the unique overhead space at the tower’s summit, the work allows natural light to filter through, creating a modest yet powerful tribute. This transforms the Round Tower into a radiant symbol of hope and offers a unique experience. Through the interplay of light, space, and imagery, the exhibition invites visitors to reflect on Brigid’s role as a unifying symbol in Irish heritage, creating a dialogue between tradition and innovation and encouraging contemplation on the values she embodies and their continued relevance in the modern world.
