AN exhibition portraying Irish history will go on public display tomorrow, to coincide with the launch of the Kerry Plan 2016 to commemorate the centenary of the 1916 Rising, at Tralee Library.

Athbheochan na Gaeilge & 1916 will be erected in the library from December 10-17 as part of the 1916 Easter Rising commemoration.

This is a display, developed by Conradh na Gaeilge, with thirteen multicoloured panels covering the period of the Cultural Revolution in Ireland and the Revival of the Irish Language.

An Taoiseach Enda Kenny launched this display at the Oireachtas na Gaeilge in Dublin at the beginning of November, and it has been purchased since then by the Irish Office in Kerry County Council to put it on display around Kerry as part of centenary commemoration 2016.

At the start of this tour, the people of Tralee will have the opportunity to see Athbheochan na Gaeilge & 1916 in Tralee Library for the week, when the Kerry 2016 Commemorative Programme will be launched to commemorate the 1916 rising.

Cathaoirleach of Kerry County Council, Cllr. Pat McCarthy will launch the programme at 7pm on Thursday.
