Irish film makers at opening
We had special international guests attend our opening on Saturday night, highly acclaimed Irish film makers from Dublin, Barrie Dowdall and Siobhan Lynam who are in Australia promoting their new documentary Convict Women and Orphan Girls. Thanks to Barrie and Siobhan for squeezing our event into their busy schedule, and thanks to Peter Fenton for arranging to bring them to the Piggery on their way to Thompson Square for the CAWB film night where the movie was being shown and an informative questions and answers session afterwards. Will post photos when they are available.
