Art on the Gable
Armagh City proudly unveils a striking new mural by artist Fintan Magee, a transformative public art project under the Armagh City Townscape Heritage Scheme. This vibrant artwork breathes new life into the city centre, celebrating Armagh’s rich heritage. Located off Scotch Street on the side of the TG Hawthorne retail building, the mural pays tribute to a 1952 photograph from the Ernest Scott Collection at Armagh County Museum. It depicts ‘The Dawn Trio’—three women who performed close harmony at Armagh City Hall during a local concert. Magee collaborated with Armagh Theatre Company to recreate the image, incorporating locally sourced window glass to symbolically connect past and present, and reflect the architectural heritage of the city.
