This meeting will now be on Feb. 5th. - due to clash of events, sorry about that.

DEFENDERS OF THE SPANISH REPUBLIC

IMPORTANT: change of date

The lecture and film by Harry Owens is at 6.30om on Tuesday Feb 5th in City Library, Augustine St, Galway, accompanying the display of photos of surviving defenders of the Republic, created by pablo Vazquez Borragan.

These are among the last witnesses who took part in the Civil War and the undreground postwar struggles against dictatorship.For many Spaniards under 60, they remian a part of the history which
was suppressed for two generations.
