The Crawford Art Gallery in Cork has announced the closure date for the commencement of its major redevelopment project.
On Sunday, September 22, the facility will close the doors to the public for approximately three years as work gets underway on a €29 million overhaul that will include the building of a five-storey extension. Exhibitions will continue as normal at the gallery until the closure date.
