This promises to be a fascinating event where we will delve into William’s early days in Ballyshannon, Helen’s achievements as a painter and the many famous people with whom they were friends. Based on the diaries, letters and other works from the Allingham archive the interview will be enhanced by a slide show and music from Allingham’s era.
