The Coole Park series of cultural events is well under way with great attendances at all the events. There are just a few arts events left in the programme with only one taking place this week. The heritage course entitled reading and understanding the landscape which is funded by Galway Rural Development, started this week and takes place on Mondays and Thursdays until mid March. See Coole Park website and the spring cultural programme 2010 brochure for details of the course.
Tomorrow from 8pm to 9pm the Gombeens present Stories of a Yellow Town. This emotional and enlightening journey is based on a collection of real-life personal stories/observations recorded by interviewing Brazilians and Irish people in Gort.
It is a remarkable insight into the struggles, misunderstandings, and happy incidents that occur when two communities become one. This hilarious and touching drama engages real issues from start to finish. The friends of Coole look forward to having the Gombeens present the final product of their research.
Remember all events in the Coole Park Spring 2010 programme are free.
