SUMMARY:Imelda's Valentine's Concert
DESCRIPTION:Imelda Kehoe is known for her distinctive voice\, story-telling and blend of jazz and soul and has been described as ‘one of the finest Irish contemporary  songwriters to emerge in recent years’.  \nAnd because Imelda treats a song as an emotional whole and can capture the joyful essence of what it feels like to love and be loved\, it follows that she is the perfect fit for the annual Jazz at Johnstown Valentine’s concert on Saturday\, February 14th. \nImelda’s performance in the Ballroom alongside pianist Killian Browne was one of the highlights of the 2025 Jazz at Johnstown Festival. Killian’s mastery of the piano helped Imelda capture the gorgeous essence of classic songs like God Only Knows. \nKillian joins Imelda’s quartet on February 14th for an evening of romance\, jazz style: you will find nothing is quite as seductive as the bluesy timbre of Imelda’s voice weaving silken phrases to make the heart sing.

The exhibition reveals the hidden story of Irish farming and food\, with a special focus on the surprising and vital role of soil\, and how Johnstown Castle became a centre for agricultural science that helped transform Irish food production. \nTo celebrate the opening\, children are invited to take part in a special hands-on workshop at the museum on Thursday\, 19 February\, led by soil scientists from Teagasc. No booking is required. Workshops will run from 11am–12pm and again from 2pm–3pm\, giving young visitors the chance to explore real science with experts\, learn simple experiments they can try at home\, and begin collecting their own science data.

SUMMARY:The Great Irish Famine by Mylo Miller
DESCRIPTION:Mylo Miller\, a staff member at Johnstown Castle\, has been working on a new museum exhibition titled “Changing Farming Fortunes”. \nThe exhibition traces Ireland’s agricultural history from the Great Irish Famine through to modern times\, highlighting Johnstown Castle’s role during the Famine and the later impact of Teagasc in advancing Irish farming practices. \nAs part of this project\, Mylo has created an illustrated talk\, “The Great Irish Famine”\, based on his in-depth research into this tragic period. The talk explores why Ireland’s poorest communities were the most vulnerable\, examines the causes of the Famine\, and describes the harsh and often devastating conditions endured by much of the population. \nWhile Wexford is often considered to have escaped the worst effects of the Famine\, the presentation will use the Wexford Workhouse as a case study to demonstrate the significant hardship faced by many poorer families. \nIt will also discuss the role of Hamilton Knox Grogan Morgan\, Resident Landlord of the Johnstown Castle Estate during the Famine years. \nFollowing the talk\, attendees will be invited to join Mylo for a short guided tour of the new Changing Farming Fortunes exhibition.
