Easter Monday Liberty Hall

category dublin | arts and media | event notice author Friday April 22, 2011 22:46author by Terry Fagan - North Inner City Folklore Projectauthor email folklore at eircom dot netauthor phone 087-9210673 Report this post to the editors

Plaque honouring Patrick Heeney.

Honouring Patrick Heeney Composer of the music for the Irish National Anthem, Amhran Na Fhiann

This year is the one hundredth anniversary of the death of Patrick Heeney who died in abject poverty in 1911 and lies buried in an unknown grave.

The North Inner City Folklore Project is honouring him on Easter Monday by unveiling a Plaque in his honour at the corner of Railway Street and Gardiner Street.

The event will open with a re-enactment of the hoisting of the Citizen Army flag at Liberty Hall by James Connolly and Molly O’Reilly in 1916. This will be recreated at 12 Noon on Easter Monday 25th April outside Liberty Hall by the grandson of James Connolly, James Connolly-Herron, and the daughter of Molly O’Reilly Constance Corcoran.

Men and women dressed in period costume and uniforms will then lead a parade from Liberty Hall to the corner of Gardiner Street and Railway Street where the plaque will be unveiled.

The North Inner City Folklore project is asking people to come along to the unveiling and to sing National Anthem in Patrick Heeney’s honour.

There will be a 1916-1923 photographic exhibition on display in an nearby community hall. Refreshments will be served. The community-based- North Inner City Folklore Project wants the events to be non-party political.

Great post Terry. I've heard recent suggestions about changing our National Anthem. I not sure if its correct but I was told there was a competition on the radio (RTE) surprise surprise, that they were searching for a new National Anthem to replace our present one. In todays Ireland it seems that the B.O.B.S (bend over backwards society) are gaining ground. It apears they will stop at nothing when it comes to smothering Irish Nationalism.

Great idea honouring Patrick Heeney. Good luck with this event and best wishes. Hope ye have a good turn-out, slan.
