A new curator of the Cavan County Museum has been appointed.
Ann Gerety Smyth took up the role in recent weeks. Ann has been a tutor, an accountant auditor and she also worked for the last 13 years managing Ardagh Heritage and Creativity Centre in Longford.
Her career to date has given her years of practical experience working with children and adults. The new curator took up the role following the official launch of the award-winning WWI Trench Experience following extensive renovation and improvement works.
