Exhibition Timeline

Short promo video for the My Kind of Town exhibition

My Kind of Town is my new exhibition that celebrates life in an industrial border town rich in music, sport and character. Using rare photos and vintage adverts from the Brand New Retro archive, the exhibition is a love letter to Dundalk, the town I grew up in.

Hosted in one of Ireland’s best pubs, Mo Chara, visitors will get a chance to rediscover Dundalk from the 1960s to the 1980s. Expect hidden gems, forgotten moments, and plenty of nostalgia.

The temporary exhibition opens from October 10th, 2025.
