A Homecoming
This comprehensive account of the Irish Diaspora is told through a dramatic interactive experience showcasing ten million journeys and exploring the routes of seventy million people around the world.
EPIC Ireland is the first digital-only museum in the world. Its growing collection will be stored in the cloud rather than on shelves or behind glass. As part of the Diaspora Today section, blogs, tweets, social-media posts and emails will be collected from Irish people living across the globe.
EPIC Ireland opened on May 6, 2016 in the presence of Mary Robinson, former president of Ireland, and to widespread critical acclaim.
