It reappeared again in 1953 when it was displayed in the vocational school in Tullamore before it was finally handed over to the National Museum.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0There is a shared interest in our community in commemorating the Cauldron but also in allowing the community to reconnect with the story. We will work with local artists, Ciaran Byrne and Luke Carson to produce designs for a sculptural piece inspired by the spirit of the Cauldron.
