Ardkeen Library Celebrates India Day
On Saturday, August 16th, Ardkeen Library hosted a celebration of India Day.
The coffee morning, organised by Waterford Libraries staff, was well attended with almost 350 people enjoying a showcase of Indian food and culture.
Mayor of Waterford City and County, Cllr. Seamus Ryan welcomed the attendees, saying the event was an opportunity to show support and appreciation for the Indian community in Waterford.
Tracy McEneaney, Executive Librarian, Waterford Libraries, explained the reason behind organising the event. “We are lucky to have an Indian community that enriches Waterford. The appreciation and esteem that the Indian community is held in Waterford was very much evidenced by the fantastic turnout on the day and by the support we received from local businesses in helping us put the event together.”
