On Thursday, 23rd April, Access UCC will host a Traveller Living History Exhibition at UCC as part of the Lifelong Learning Festival, celebrating 21 years of learning, connection, and community engagement. This event honours Traveller culture, heritage, and identity, while also acknowledging the ongoing barriers, particularly anti-Traveller racism, that continue to affect Traveller communities.
