New Sound System

The voice of art will be heard above clamoring crowds, thanks to a new public address system the Friends of the Aigantighe have bought for the gallery.

The Friends bought the 500-watt system as a birthday present for the gallery, which turns 50 this year.

As well as saving the speakers from shouting, the systems mixing board can actually save their voices.

There are plans to start building a library of recorded speeches of the many guests that come to speak at the gallery. The recording of the openings adds another layer to what the gallery has to offer the community.
