People of the Tribes: Meet Lorna.

Tue, Jul 16, 2019

Hey, I'm Lorna, I'm 25 and live in Galway. I'm lucky enough to have been born here and spent my life living here, both in the city where I live and Carraroe, Connemara where I did my first degree. I have a degree in media through Irish and I'm also a primary school teacher. I worked in TG4 during college, have dabbled in online journalism and have done a few art projects along the side. I'm a big lover of dance and still do ballet classes once a week in Briarhill. One could say I'm a jack of many trades, a master of none! I love working with kids, their optimism is infectious. I love all things creative and really find myself at home in Galway because of this. I recently completed a short-acting course at the Lir Academy in Dublin and loved it. I'm really excited to explore the field more, especially here in Galway. I'm currently working as part of Galway Art's Festival's Box Office Squad. It's a busy job but I love it. I feel so lucky to be part of the festival, there is nowhere better than Galway at this team of the year! My favourite thing about Galway is the opportunities it provides culturally, both within the arts and the Irish language. I'm a fluent speaker and love that I can use my Gaeilge daily in Galway. Be sure to pop into the Box Office in the Cornstore to say hi!(as Gaeilge nó Bearla!)

People of the Tribes: Colm & Caryl Mc Donagh

Tue, Jul 16, 2019

''I'm the son of a Carna man and from Renmore. Originally my life was in the travel business. I set up Colm Mc Donagh travel in 1989 down in Woodquay and One-Stop Travel here on Eyre Square. I spent a lot of years in the travel business and things were moving in a different direction, along with our lease so it was a case of a decision being made for us. Do we take out a lease for another 15 years? Was there enough business in the travel industry or go a new direction?... And so we did! My wife Caryl who worked with me in the travel business is a qualified chef and we always wanted to open up a little coffee shop. The opportunity presented itself and we grabbed it with both hands, now we have a 25-year lease and teamed up with an amazing brand - Esquire Coffee. Its all about bringing the business to you, having quality service, helping people out in times of need and not being afraid to roll up the sleeves! Galway has gotten way more cosmopolitan, the coffee culture is now like the pub culture sure. I love Galway with all my heart, I couldn't live or work anywhere else in the world.''

Mount St Mary’s

Thu, Jul 11, 2019

In the late 12th century, the Diocese of Annaghdown came into existence in the area surrounding the city of Galway. In 1324 it was united with Tuam, but the Anglo-Norman families refused to accept direction from Tuam. In 1484 Pope Innocent VIII made St Nicholas’ Church a Collegiate Church governed by a warden (not a bishop) and eight vicars. Edmund ffrench, the last warden, was made Bishop of Kilmacduagh in 1824. On April 27, 1831, the Bull ‘Sedium Episcopalaism’ was issued by Pope Gregory XVI erecting the Diocese of Galway. On October 23, 1831, the first Bishop of the Diocese, George Joseph Plunkett Browne, was consecrated, and in 1844 he was succeeded by Laurence O’Donnell. John McEvilly became Bishop in 1857.

Menlo oarsmen

Thu, Jul 04, 2019

One of the great sporting achievements of the last century was the remarkable success of a group of Irish speaking farmers and local men from Menlo. During a very wet spring when they could do little work on their farms or on the bog, as they watched rowing crews going up and down the river, a group of them decided to form a rowing club. They asked to become members of Menlo Emmetts Hurling Club and adopted the name. Many of them would have spent a lot of time on the river, but that did not mean they knew how to handle a racing boat. When they took their clinker out for the first time, it took them a good while to steady the boat. A local man watching, described them as “The Wobblers” and this name stuck for a few years.
