This Culture Night, the National Museum of Ireland at Collins Barracks invites visitors to take part in an engaging, hands-on session. In this session, we will explore the social movements that Changed Ireland. From Women’s Suffrage to Trans Solidarity movements, we will explore Ireland’s evolution over 100 years of history.  

This drop-in handling session will take place in the Museum Reception area from 17:30 - 19:00. No booking is required, come and go as you please! Handling sessions can be expected to take from 5-15 minutes. Children must be fully supervised by a parent or adult who is in loco parentis.
