Spotlight on a national treasure! Members of the public are invited to attend a free talk during Heritage Week that will focus on the conservation of a true national treasure, Edith Somerville's The Goose Girl (1888).

The Goose Girl is now the subject of conservation treatment while the doors of Crawford Art Gallery are closed for its major redevelopment. Supported by the Heritage Council through the Heritage Stewardship Fund 2025, this crucial work will ensure the historic painting’s future.

The talk will have feature speakers: conservator Chiara Chillè, registrar Jean O’Donovan, and curator Michael Waldron. In-person at Civic Trust House, Cork city.

This talk is free but registration is required.
