Museum of the Moon in Limerick
Saint Mary’s Cathedral, Limerick, in conjunction with Limerick City and County Council was delighted to welcome Museum of the Moon in March. Museum of the Moon came to the city as part of Limerick St Patrick’s Festival 2019. Museum of the Moon is a new touring artwork by artist Luke Jerram, bringing together a fusion of lunar imagery, moonlight and surround sound. The moon features detailed NASA imagery of the lunar surface. Tying in with the theme of this year’s parade – ‘One Giant Leap’ – and honouring the lasting effect that the moon landing has had on the world, the Museum of the Moon was present in the Cathedral for a week, during which over 15,000 people visited Limerick’s oldest building.
