Time to get back to some reading, post submission 📚 🍂☕️ @historyalice.bsky.social

Last day to order prints in time for Father's Day in Ireland on www.ciaraioch.com/artprints Get your dad something he'll look at with mild confusion, say "oh, that's nice" and place in the back of a press somewhere, never to be seen again.

Name the new National Children’s hospital after the great Dr Kathleen Lynn - a bill to be introduced to the Dáil. I would sincerely hope this would have cross party, even unanimous, support. She more than deserves this honour #speirgorm www.con-telegraph.ie/2025/04/21/b... to

It's very easy to not use AI image generators. Less than zero effort required. There's no reason to help normalise it at all.

A survey is under way to assess the dilapidation of Dublin's historic North Georgian Core, the Department of Heritage has said. It comes as experts say the level of dereliction and neglect is at its highest in decades. www.rte.ie/news/dublin/...

An important research project! Keep the eyes peeled around Dublin

Tired but lots brain fizzes after @ulhistory.bsky.social Telling Her Stories event. Couldn't have did today without my fabulous PGR steering group, Rebecca O'Regan, Rachel Beck & Naomi Rice 🤓 Pictured some of our speakers & organisers. Thanks to all woo participated 🤗

Two years after our ‘final’ house move, I’ve finally hung up art in my office! And by I, I mean “we” 😉 spiritlevel @ciaraioch.bsky.social @jamartfactory.bsky.social amongst them 🥰

RTÉ Brainstorm’s latest podcast explores the story of the first all-Ireland mapping survey 200 years ago, based on a piece co-written by Dr Catherine Porter, School of History & Geography. www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2... @catsporter.bsky.social @profkdlilley.bsky.social @irelandmapped.bsky.social

A cost-of-living crisis isn't the easiest time to sell art, but: www.ciaraioch.com is where you can support my work, with each archival-quality print on textured heavy paper being produced here in Ireland, shipping internationally in eco-friendly packaging, with free mini-treats in every order 🎁

📸 Do you have historic photographs of Dublin street signage in the cló gaelach? ☘️ 🍀As we celebrate #StPatricksDay this year, we talk to @medievalireland.bsky.social (@historytcd.bsky.social), about Ireland's unique street signs and how you can help! 💡Learn more: bit.ly/CLOSCAPE #HubMatters

A few years ago I made a series of mini drawings of interesting Irish women (available as a print here www.ciaraioch.com/artprints/p/...) - this thread is a little information on the women featured, partly because it's useful, but mostly because I'm trying to be sustainable by recycling content.

Happy Christmas from me to me 🎄📚🎄🧩🥰

Great trip to the @nlireland.bsky.social for some research 📖 and catching up with classmates too
