To commemorate the Tullamore link with Patrick Kavanagh, one of Ireland’s greatest poets, Wordsmiths Tullamore are holding an evening of poetry, story and song.
The evening takes place in Shane Lowry's The Old Warehouse at Bury Quay, Tullamore on the banks of the Grand Canal on Thursday, July 18 from 7pm to 9pm.
Chorus Connection, the Tullamore Community Choir, will also perform at the event.
Weather permitting it is hoped to recite a selection of poetry on the banks of the canal to honour Patrick’s love of water.
The Old Warehouse have very kindly agreed to provide tables and seating by the canal.
In the event of inclement weather they will provide accommodation for attendees in the Whiskey Bar.
