Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh of Altan (Donegal Person of the Year) will launch the Donegal Heritage ‘Life & Lore’ Collection, a collection of circa 60 oral recordings on CD of the reminiscences of County Donegal residents. The Donegal Heritage 'Life & Lore' Collection tells part of the story of County Donegal through the lives, and in the words, of some of its residents.  The interviewees are drawn from all over County Donegal and address various aspects of our heritage.  The interviews were conducted by Maurice O'Keeffe as part of the Irish 'Life & Lore' series.  The Donegal Heritage ‘Life & Lore’ Collection was commissioned by the County Donegal Heritage Office, Donegal County Council, the County Donegal Heritage Forum and The Heritage Council as part of the County Donegal Heritage Plan (2007-2011). If you would like to attend the launch, please contact the Donegal County Museum, High Road, Letterkenny on (074) 912 4613 or by e-mail at: museum@donegalcoco.ie
