Damer House is the venue for a very special performance of music and poetry to celebrate Culture Night in Roscrea on Friday, September 20th.

Wicklow poet Pauline Flynn will join local singer songwriter Jack Keeshan to enthrall and entertain. Pauline is widely published and has been shortlisted for a Patrick Kavanagh Poetry Award. Jack will perform favourites from his album 'Blue Murder' along with new work. All are welcome to this free event, which begins at 7.30pm.

Culture Night, in its 14th year, is an all-island celebration of culture, creativity and the arts. Damer House Gallery has had a most successful season of exhibitions and workshops showcasing contemporary art in the beautiful heritage setting of Damer House. Recently the Gallery was hosted at Áras an Uachtaráin where President Michael D Higgins acknowledged the vibrancy of the Gallery’s work.

Why not come along to see these two performers on Friday night, or pop in to the Gallery to see the final exhibition of this season, 'Drawing Out'. All welcome.
