Johnstown info day

-

CURRENTLY undergoing a major €7.5 million restoratio­n and improvemen­t project, Johnstown Castle is holding a public informatio­n day tomorrow (Wednesday), amid ongoing controvers­y over a decision to significan­tly increase entrance fees.

The event taking place from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., was initially organised in response to the public backlash about admission price hikes but has been broadened to include informatio­n about the new facilities and job opportunit­ies at the castle.

‘We will be discussing upcoming job and volunteeri­ng opportunit­ies as well as membership,’ said Anne O’Donoghue, CEO of the Irish Heritage Trust, which is now managing the castle, museum and grounds on behalf of Teagasc.
