On Thursday, August 10th, the Irish Community in Philadelphia partnered to celebrate our Consul General, Barbara Jones, and wish her well in her next post as Ireland’s Ambassador to Mexico.
Many thanks to our members, Free Library of Philadelphia, PA Department of Community & Economic Development, and Villanova University Center for Irish Studies, who were generous event sponsors. It was our pleasure to join the Irish Community in presenting this very special event.
