‘Our Voices Together: Stories of Migration to and from Donegal’

Donegal County Museum and the County Archives Service are inviting the public to the launch of their latest exciting project ‘Our Voices Together: Stories of Migration to and from Donegal’ at Donegal County Museum, Letterkenny, on Friday, 30th January 2026, at 2 pm.

‘Our Voices Together: Stories of Migration to and from Donegal’ is an intercultural oral history and heritage project aiming to capture and celebrate the diverse migration experiences of communities throughout County Donegal.

Led by community engagement organisation Workhouse Union, in partnership with Donegal County Council’s Museum and Archives Services, the 16-month project will collaborate with local organisations and groups to engage new communities and returned Irish emigrants. Together, they will gather, preserve, and share migration stories through arts-led creative engagement methods that explore traditional skills, intangible culture, and crafts as starting points for storytelling and cultural exchange. There will also be a schools engagement programme. The final phase will focus on creating a legacy through exhibition and archive development.
