About
This talk takes a look at the history of libraries in the town and finds out about the very first museum before looking at the building of Carnegie Free Library and the development of Victoria Road. Through the talk you will discover how the formation of Larne and District Folklore Society lead to the development of the town's second museum. Joint ventures by the Society and Larne and District Historical Centre lead to events such as the Bruce Cavalcade and the re-enactments of the Hiring Fairs. The talk then looks at more recent developments in the museum and explores some elements of the museum's collection. The talk includes historic images of the town and video footage.
This talk is taking place as part of Carnegie Day 2024.
