County gets in the mood for culture

A PHOTOGRAPHIC exhibition, some retro-style singing, tango-dancing as well as arts and crafts are among the elements being celebrated this Friday in south Tipperary as the county marks Culture Night for the first time.

The county council’s arts service and the County Museum in Clonmel have a full programme of events throughout Friday while other towns across Tipperary will also be hosting events.

An exhibition of old photos by former RTÉ cameraman and photographer Donal Wylde continues at the museum. Entitled Light of Other Days, and held to coincide with his book of the same name, the exhibition is a record of life in Tipperary during the 1960s and 1970s and will close on Saturday.
