Exhibitions, talks and events
What's on?
The Public Record Office of Northern Ireland (PRONI) regularly organises or participates in talks, events and exhibitions, often in conjunction with other local organisations. The ‘Hidden Connections: Ulster and Slavery, 1807-2007’ exhibition to mark the bi-centenary of the abolition of the slave trade in the British Empire ran in a number of venues throughout Northern Ireland. Curated by PRONI and launched in November 2007 in the Linen Hall Library
, the exhibition drew on documents from PRONI’s archives, artefacts from the Ulster Museum
and contemporary books and pamphlets from the Linen Hall Library and elsewhere.
As part of the PRONI contribution to Archive Awareness Campaign for 2007 based on the theme of ‘Freedom and liberty’, a booklet Ulster and Slavery (4.2MB)
has been produced. It includes an extensive appendix listing the references to slavery to be found in the various archives held in PRONI.
You will find details of talks, events and exhibitions, currently running or coming up in the near future, on the Exhibitions talks, events and - what's on? page.
