Cork Heritage Open Day is a unique event, which is held on the first Saturday of Cork Heritage Week and is celebrating its 13th Anniversary this year. Organised by Cork City Council, Cork Heritage Open Day is taking place on Saturday, August 19th and will see over 42 buildings open their doors to the public for one day only. A series of guided walking tours, heritage events, exhibitions, talks and children's events will also take place. All events are free. Here at Shandon Bells & Tower we have free entry from 10am-2pm. No booking required but there is a strict restriction on numbers in the tower at one time so be prepared to queue for a bit! Under 16's must be accompanied by an adult at all times. Cork Heritage Open Day is organized by Cork City Council as part of Heritage Week in partnership with the Heritage Council and with media sponsorship from Cork's 96FM and the Evening Echo. http://www.corkheritageopenday.ie/

Saturday 19th August at 2:30pm St Anne's Church- FREE ENTRY
Join Tom Spalding and David Ryan of Cork Decorative and Fine Arts Society as they discuss the ongoing Church Recording Project in St Anne’s Shandon. Cork DFAS was founded in 2013 and is devoted to the conservation of the artistic and cultural heritage of Cork and the advancement and study of the decorative and fine arts. Since May 2016, with the support of the vestry and clergy of the church, members of Cork DFAS have been engaged in an ambitious and innovative project to create a complete digital catalogue of the interior features of St Anne’s. This is the first time such church recording has been done in the Republic. http://www.heritageweek.ie/whats-on/event/cork-dfas-church-recording-project |
