Am Pàipear is very excited to announce the first in a series of events organised to mark the 40th anniversary of the paper this summer. A special exhibition entitled THE AM PAIPEAR COLLECTION will be hosted at Museum nan Eilean within Sgoil Lionacleit from 8th July to 3rd September.
Iain Stephen Morrison – Editor of Am Pàipear – said: “We hope our community will thoroughly enjoy THE AM PAIPEAR COLLECTION. Our archive is going to be opened up to the public, offering a rare chance to examine previous editions and explore the history of these islands as documented over the past 40 years. Accompanying photographs, artwork and artefacts will ensure THE AM PAIPEAR COLLECTION is a visual treat, a real walk down memory lane.”
He continued: “We would like to extend a warm welcome to everyone to come along to the official preview and opening of THE AM PAIPEAR COLLECTION at 7pm on Thursday 7th July. Entertainment for the evening will be provided by some of the students and tutors of Ceòlas.
“We are most grateful to the staff of Museum nan Eilean and Comhairle nan Eilean Siar for hosting this exhibition and providing so much support.”
