The countdown begins for the Cork Mother Jones Festival which takes place from Tuesday, 31st July to Thursday, 2nd August.

There has been huge interest in the festival from right around the Ireland but especially in Mary Harris Jones native city of Cork, Ireland and in her adopted home in the United States of America.    We still have some tickets left for the Andy Irvine concert in Shandon on the Wednesday night (1st August) and for the bus tour to Cobh on Thursday 2nd August (see related posts below for more details).  And of course there has been great interest in the commemorative medallion that we have produced which is for sale at €10 and will undoubtedly become a collectors item in years to come.
