Being Irish O'Quebec - Fergus_Keyes - 03-20-2009 A few of us were at the opening last night of the new Irish exhibition at the McCord Museum in Montreal called ?Being Irish O?Quebec?. It is a terrific exhibition and includes a section dedicated to St. Columban. It runs until April 2010 and should not be missed. Here are the details:- Being Irish O'Quebec From March 20, 2009 to April 4, 2010 McCord Museum of Canadian History 690 Sherbrooke Street West Montreal, Quebec H3A 1E9 Phone : (514) 398-7100 There is also an article about the exhibition in today?s Montreal Gazette (March 20th) on page A7 by Mike Boone which mentions St. Columban although he seems to have made a mistake thinking that the exhibition only runs until April 2009 rather than April 2010.
