14 Henrietta Street presents Teatime Talks, a series of talks inspired by the history and people of 14 Henrietta Street.

By listening and engaging with visitors, historians, experts, local people, former tenement residents and their families, we continue to uncover, record and respond to the 300 year story of 14 Henrietta Street.

Henrietta Street is described in Dubliners, James Joyce's celebrated collection of short stories. But what was happening on this street in the lifetime of James Joyce? In this illustrated talk, historian Donal Fallon will explore the journey of Henrietta Street and the local area (including Bolton Street and Capel Street) in the age of Joyce.

Donal Fallon is social historian to Dublin City Council Culture Company and the presenter of the Three Castles Burning podcast.

This talk will take place in person on the 1st floor of the Museum and can be accessed via lift.
