tells the story of the history of the Metal Box factory in
Portadown, which closed in the 1980s and the people who worked
there. The Project concluded on Friday 18th October, with
the launch in the Millennium Court Arts Centre in Portadown
of 'The Tin God', a book written by the Belfast poet Adrian
Rice, which wonderfully details the life of the factory and
its employees.
The Project provides solid evidence of the willingness of
the Library Service to engage, wherever possible, with the
local community, supporting the efforts of local people and
helping to produce, as in this case, something that will be
of benefit to the wider community. . |
