“These upcoming events organised by MAC PR, will give local people the chance to see the space in a variety of uses and we’re grateful to the funders for their support of this project,” he added.

The next event which takes place on the 29th January (7-9.30pm) is a Photographic exhibition in conjunction with Rostrevor Historical Society entitled Old Rostrevor: The Place the People.
