Tyneside Irish / Irish Migration: Community, Heritage and Co-production
Presented by the Cultural Significance of Place (CSoP) research group:
Join us for an afternoon focusing on the Irish communities in Tyneside, and Irish migration more broadly. We’ll be finding out about recent and ongoing projects in the region (Co-Curate North East, Múin Béarla do na Leanbháin) and discussing new directions for research and engagement. The event will also feature a community showcase of heritage resources available to researchers, professionals and other interested parties.
