Portrush Heritage Group and Causeway Coast and Glens Museum Services hosted a successful ‘Pop-Up Museum’ as part of Portrush’s Swell Festival on the 5th and 6th October 2024.

The theme for the event was ‘Growing up in Portrush’. We had lots of interesting artefacts brought in including a fishing rod dating to 1915, photographs, receipts, school roll books and Captain Shutt’s scrapbooks.

We would like to thank everyone who loaned material and made our first pop-up museum such a fantastic success. We hope you enjoy exploring the material in this online exhibition – click here to access the Archive.
