Siamsa Tíre, the National Folk Theatre of Ireland, has made changes to its board.
Seán Murphy of founder and CEO of Murphy’s Ice Cream is replacing Joe Leonard as chairperson.
The AGM took place on June 2nd.
Siamsa Tíre’s Executive Director Róisín McGarr says they will miss Mr Leonard who is Group HR Director with PM Group.
Seán Murphy says taking up the role is an opportunity to expand support to the county’s premier theatre and art space.
The team at Siamsa says they look forward to working with Mr Murphy, who joined their board earlier this year following an open recruitment process.
Siamsa Tíre has reopened its doors to the public and the building will be open from Thursday to Sunday throughout the summer, restrictions permitting.
