Connecting Corrib Communities

Join us for Connecting Corrib Communities, a fascinating presentation exploring the deep-rooted fishing traditions and prehistoric past of Oughterard and The Claddagh. Discover how these communities, shaped by the waters of Lough Corrib and Galway Bay, share a rich heritage of resilience, skill, and connection. Through archaeology, history, and storytelling, we’ll bridge the past and present, strengthening the ties between these two iconic Corrib communities. There will also be a display of Mesolithic replica archaeological material on the night.
