As part of the Malahide Has It Festival 2011, Malahide Credit Union was delighted to host a very special photographic Expo of a unique collection of photographs displayed by the Malahide Historical Society.
These photographs illustrated how Malahide has evolved over the decades and provided a very special insight into life in the village in years gone by.
The Expo took place at the new Malahide Credit Union premises on Main Street and both the Historical Society and Malahide Credit Union were delighted to see hundreds of visitors come through the doors during the hugely successful Festival.
Malahide Credit Union Manager, Vivienne Keavey said: “Malahide Credit Union is proud to have been involved in the Malahide Has It Festival 2011 and really delighted to have hosted this remarkable photographic exhibition in what will be our new offices. The village is rich in history and these photographs and images displayed by the Malahide Historical Society form a wonderful tapestry and catalogue of memories of times gone by. We were thrilled to see so many people enjoy the experience. Hope to CU on Main Street when we open our doors again!”
Secretary of the Society, Brian Dooley said: “Malahide has a long and proud history, which can be traced back as far as c.6000 B.C. Malahide Historical Society was established in 1978 to help safeguard Malahide’s rich historical heritage for future generations by creating an awareness and sense of identity for locals and for visitors. We were delighted to participate in the Festival through this display of old photographs from our large collection of memorabilia in Malahide Credit Union’s new premises, and congratulate the Festival committee for organising such a hugely successful event.
