Talks of the Town: Exhibition Tour and Town Walking Tour

An invitation to explore the particular life of the Irish town and learn more about Trim with architect Valerie Mulvin. Join an in-person tour of The Reason of Towns exhibition and find out more about the role of architects, town planners and local communities in shaping the form and function of Irish towns, past, present and future. The exhibition tour will be followed by an experiential sound walk exploring atmospheres of place and traversing historical and ecological aspects of Trim, with architect Sarah Doheny, Cineál Research + Design.

Talks of the Town is a one-day programme of tours, workshops and conversations taking place at the Swift Cultural Centre, Trim, as part of the touring exhibition, The Reason of Towns. Across the day, the Irish Architecture Foundation and Valerie Mulvin in partnership with the Swift Cultural Centre, will bring the exhibition to life for all who attend. Take time out, explore this unique town in a new way and join us as we share stories, histories and discuss Trim as a sustainable town of the future. You can book for some or all of the events across the day, but don’t miss the chance to be the talk of the town!
