    A FESTIVAL of IRISH & AMERICAN HISTORY, CULTURE POLITICS and 7th / 8th / 9th of SEPTEMBER 2017 NEW ROSS, CO. WEXFORD, IRELAND. 1 kennedysummerschool.ie 7th - 9th September 2017 WELCOME We were both delighted to be invited to take on the role as Directors of the 2017 Kennedy Summer School. Over the last five years the summer school has grown from strength to strength and it is now a significant Larry Donnelly feature of the political, social and media landscapes each September. This has made our task in seeking to attract such a broad range of contributors all the easier. Over two and a half days from the 7th to 9th of September, the Kennedy Summer School will again tackle the important topical issues in Irish and U.S. politics, with top commentators from both sides of the Atlantic. Dr. Brian Murphy The Trump presidency and Brexit will inevitably be important topics for discussion. We have also gathered a panel of leading historians to assess the legacy of President John F. Kennedy, 100 years on from his birth. We are also thrilled that we will be joined this year by two of the most impressive practitioners of the art of political discourse; the veteran campaign strategist Bob Shrum, who has been central to many U.S. presidential campaigns, and Cody Keenan, who was chief speech writer for President Obama. We have also enhanced the opportunity for audience participation over the weekend by introducing a series of public interviews, including with RTE U.S. Correspondent, Caitriona Perry and the Democratic Unionist MP, Ian Paisley.

Never, in the history of staging live performance and events, has there been such a sudden and total stop to work in Ireland, as happened on the 12th of March 2020. In response to the crisis in the live event industry, created by the Covid-19 pandemic, this working group was elected, to represent the interests and concerns of the individuals and business involved in producing live events and performance. Our critical supports, needed from the State: 1. The Covid Payment, and Wage Subsidy to continue for Event and Arts workers until the mass gathering ban and social distancing are not required for medical safety in Ireland. 2. Business grant support of 20% of 2018 turnover, for SMEs in the Event and Arts sector, to aid with rent and bank loan payments.
