Clare’s new €17 million state-of-the art county library and cultural centre, the De Valera Library, opened its doors this Monday, November 11.
While Taoiseach Simon Harris officially opened the De Valera Library and Súil Gallery on Friday, Mayor of Clare Cllr Alan O'Callaghan and Chief Executive of Clare County Council Pat Dowling were joined by the children of Clare to test (and Teddy!) to test out the new facilities.
The 2,321 square metre, landmark building in the county town of Ennis, comprises a public library spread over two floors; a 100 square metre art gallery; and the headquarters of Clare Libraries and Arts Services.
Built beside the existing glór theatre, the specifically designed building unifies the literary, visual, and performing arts onto one site, creating a vibrant cultural hub for the community in Clare.
