Exhibition Highlights Community Life
The Genealogy and Heritage Group successfully launched their Windows Into History Project at the Ballyhaunis Community Hall on August 21, 2026 during Heritage Week 2026. The exhibition brought those who worked, shopped or supplied rural shops in villages of Brickens, Culnacleha, Logboy, Bekan, Brackloon, Kiltybo and beyond.
The group also screened the Windows Into History film, which recorded the oral histories of the families who operated the shops for many years.
The Ballyhaunis Community Council was awarded a Creative Mayo Community Grant Mayo County Council and the Creative Ireland Programme to work deliver projects for people to engage with culture, heritage and creativity.
