Three Irish Men walk into A Bar.
Have you ever heard the story of the Three Irishmen who walked into the Bar.
Well, this is about these men.
We are exhibiting some Prints capturing what a Traditional Irish bar looked like back when it was a male dominated pastime and how they entertained themselves
The prints are from the Late Ronnie Muir, who has captured time before Jukeboxes, Gaming Machines and Television were in Every Bar in Ireland.
Ronnie who originally came from Dundee, in Scotland, married and made Ballymena his home. He worked for Patton's , which was a local building firm as a Painter, he spend his spare time painting bar scenes and keeping Pigeons, where he was a member of the local Ballymena Fancier Club.
Sadly, Ronnie passed away in 2011 aged 60 from Cancer, but he has left a legacy of what bars were like before technology took over .
So, We can thank Ronnie, for keeping those days,more than a memory
