Irish Immigration to Northampton, From Cornelius Merry to Roisin Quinn
With W. Michael Ryan

Cornelius was an indentured servant who arrived sometime around 1663 and Rosy arrived in 1982. Only a few Irish reached Northampton before 1840, however during the famine from 1845-1850 arrived steadily in the area of Florence and Leeds to work in the Mills. Around 1900, the Kerry Irish descended upon the Northampton area and did so steadily until WWII. Ryan’s talk on March 20^th will look at what was happening in Northampton from 1949 to 1980. He will then focus on specific clans including: The Dunphys, Foleys, Shannons, Deweys, Garveys, Luceys, O’Donnells, Connors and Cahillanes.

Wedding Dress Party

You wore it one time. It sits in the back of your closet. You look at it every now and then and have fond memories of the day you wore it…we hope. It’s your wedding dress, the crazy bridesmaids dress your  friend made you wear, your prom dress or just a cocktail dress that you love and have nowhere to wear it again.  Or so you thought!

Put on that wedding gown, that prom dress, that party dress and come to the Garden House at Look Park for our First Wedding Dress Party!

Not sure if the dress will fit right? Sure it will. Use duck tape to hold it together. Or a giant binder clip to hold it in in the right places. Because this party is all about wearing that fabulous dress and dancing the night away like no one is watching.

Get your hair done. Get your nails done. Grab your friends and give that dress the 2^nd best night of it’s life.

DJ Suspence will be playing all of your favorite wedding hits. Hors D’oeuvres by Seth Mias Catering. Make sure you stop by the photo booth before the night is over to document the evening properly.
Tickets: $25.00
