Mary Costello - The Pearl Flannery Humanities Award
Sandy Boyer - The Sr. Sarah Clarke Human Rights Award
A tribute to John Costelloe
The theme for the Testimonial Awards Dinner will be: The First Dáil Éireann
Souvenir Journal. A Souvenir Ad Journal is being produced to mark the event. This is an ideal opportunity to place a memorial ad for the many activists and friends who have passed away having done their part here in the U.S. in the long and ongoing struggle for Irish freedom. By placing an ad in their memory in the Souvenir Journal, their memories live on and ensure that future revisionists will not mar their work. Among those who come to mind are Frank Durkan, Al Lewis, John Costelloe, Mike Skeahan, Bart Dougherty, Peter Farley, Kathy Butler Diaz, George Harrison and countless others whom you could chose to honor in this way. Proceeds from the dinner and the journal ads provide support to the growing number of Irish political prisoners and their families.
Tickets for the 2009 Testimonial are $80.00 per person. For ticket information please email at: flanneryjournal@gmail.com.
Journal ads are $100.00 for a full page and $60.00 for a half page. For more information, please email enrightnyc@hotmail.com.
