Lough Gara: Past & Present | Conor O’Connell at Ballaghaderreen Arts Festival

Event Details

An exhibition run by Roscommon` artist Conor O’Connell, celebrating one of the richest and most diverse archaeological and ecological sites in the country. Lough Gara boasts archaeological material dating back to the Early Mesolithic (9,000 years ago) and is perhaps best known for its density of crannog (lake dwelling) sites, incomparable with anywhere in Europe.
The exhibition will feature original and replica artefacts from the lake, as well as documents, audio, art, and a large scale model of a crannog made for the exhibition.
