John Roberts Weekend
Telephone: +353 (0)51 879124   E-mail: Click here to email this contact   E-mail: Click here to email this contact   A celebration of the work of Waterford born architect John Roberts (1714-1796). The name of John Roberts is synonymous with Georgian architecture in Waterford city and is also important further a field in Ireland. Despite the fact that he designed and built both the city’s cathedrals (a unique achievement), Waterford City Hall and other significant buildings he has been a much-neglected figure. In 2000, a group of individuals in the city came together to discuss the possibility of commemorating his work in a suitable manner. The idea was to organise a weekend event with a mixture of formal and informal elements, rather than just a series of formal lectures. As a consequence, walking tours, concerts, exhibitions and other non-academic events form an integral part of the weekend’s activities. The Weekend is intended as an opportunity for people to meet in a relaxed but informative atmosphere.
