After being closed for almost two years because of Covid-19 restrictions, the Dun Laoghaire Active Retirement Association is planning to restart members' meetings this month. They will begin with their AGM on Friday 25th February, at 2.00 pm in the Boylan Centre, Sussex Street, Dun Laoghaire.

ArtNetdlr presents Covid 19 Good News Story - Biennale Collaborative Project Metamorphosis, an exhibition of seventy eight artists from Dun Laoghaire - Rathdown. ArtNetdlr members from a wide range of disciplines and practices have been working together in small groups over the past eighteen months, collaborating via Zoom, Skype, or nature walks in response to the theme of Metamorphosis.

Martyna Starzinskaite from ArtNetdlr joins us to discuss the exhibition in more detail.

As part of the National Maritime Museum’s lecture series, David Snook delivered a talk - Ireland and the WW1 Endgame. Geographically, Ireland was right in the middle as the British and US governments overcame the U-boat threat and transported food, war material and two million US troops to Europe. The U-boat defeat led to the German army defeat on the Western front.

David Snook joins us to discuss the events featured in his lecture.

Community Connection is sponsored by DLR PPN and co-produced with Peter Rice and Patrick Keeley, Dublin South FM and Simone Sav, DLR PPN Manager.
