A History of the GAA in 100 Objects
€5.00
The Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) is often evoked through objects: medals passed down from generation to generation, jerseys worn in All-Ireland finals, Michael Cusack’s blackthorn stick, Cúl Camps backpacks. This illustrated talk explores fascinating objects and their stories, which were uncovered by Siobhán Doyle when travelling around the country researching and writing her book A History of the GAA in 100 Objects. This talk highlights the challenges and the charms of telling stories through objects and how even the most ordinary, everyday objects can tell remarkable stories.
