A weaver by trade, he spent almost all his long life in his native place. Patrick Kavanagh, principal of Gaddyduff National School, Clonmany, who had spent his childhood as a neighbour, realised the importance of what he had to say and chronicled his memoirs over many years. From this backdrop the McGlinchey Summer School will explore the history and traditions of Inishowen and the north west. It is hoped that a greater awareness of our rich heritage will be created and will be passed on to a new generation. In this, our third Summer School, we celebrate the millennium by exploring the spiritual heritage and traditions of Inishowen and the north west.
Admission is free to all lectures.
