- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 07 Mar, 2026 at 07:30 pm
- **Event Description**: The Reading Room Bookshop presents 'A Miscellany of Women’s Voices' for International Womens’s Day 2026 at The Dock on Saturday 7 March.

International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social economic, cultural, and political achievements of women.  The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender equality.

Join a community of voices for an evening of talks, connection, and empowerment — dedicated to sharing knowledge, visibility and helping women to thrive.

Included on the itinerary are insightful conversations with Jan Alexander and Jackie McKenna.

Born in Australia in the early 1950s, Jan Alexander has lived in Ireland for almost fifty years. In the 1980s, her voice became well known in Irish media as an early advocate for environmental restoration through tree planting.

In 1986, Jan launched the NGO Crann, based in County Leitrim, with the aim of re‑treeing Ireland with broadleaved species. She gave talks and interviews across the country to communities, schools, and the media, planting trees and inspiring local projects as she went.

Jackie McKenna was born in Manorhamilton, Co. Leitrim, in 1958. She studied Fine Art in Sligo and completed her degree in Sculpture at Dun Laoghaire College of Art. Most of her work over the past forty years has been site-specific, large-scale outdoor pieces created through public commissions.

Jackie has played a significant role in the development and promotion of the arts in Ireland. She was an active member of the Sculpture Society of Ireland in the 1980s, served on the Cultural Relations Committee for eight years, and co-founded the Leitrim Sculpture Centre in 1997.
