Newmarket Street Museum and Town Park Fete

Newmarket Community Development Association will be running a Street Museum as part of the Days of The Region month being organised by IRD Duhallow. The idea is that both businesses and private houses in the town will put up displays in their windows that are of cultural or historical interest to Newmarket; anything from old photographs, posters, old objects, poems, songs, history of the building or more elaborate displays. There will be a prize for best display. The event will run from 1-5PM on the 20th of July. If you would like to take part please give your name, address and theme of your display to Eilis Hourigan (087-2480935) or email to contact@athtrasna.com before the 1st of July.

We will also be serving refreshments under a marquee at the town park, and we are inviting crafts people and other businesses to set up stalls here (please contact Eilis Hourigan on 087-2480935 if you would like to set up a stand).

We will also be using this day to formally launch all the work that has been done in the town park over the last two years – our new path and lights, outdoor gym, new playground and rubber pour safety surfacing, picnic tables (to be installed shortly) and the mural.  People will have the oppurtunity to make a donation on the day if they wish.
