Drogheda to remember Olive Powderly with heartfelt musical tribute
The commemorative event will take place on Friday, May 10 at 7.30pm in the Barbican Centre Drogheda, as Toccata House Music School honour a legacy with special concerts featuring talented local artists to celebrate music, memories and community.
A spokesperson for Toccata House Music School said: "We at Toccata House Music School are honoured to organise this tribute to Olive Powderly — a beloved friend, teacher, and inspiration to so many here in Drogheda. Her kindness and passion for music touched every student and person she met. On this occasion we celebrate her life and her lasting impact on our community with different music styles: Classical, Traditional Irish, ABBA, Bach, Bon Jovi, Musicals and more. We lost Olive to cancer last November, but her legacy lives on in every note we play. We're also proud to make a donation in her memory to the Gary Kelly Cancer Support Centre."
Come together for an evening of reflection to celebrate Olive's extraordinary legacy and her lasting impact on the local arts scene.
Tickets for the concert are available online at Eventbrite – Olive Powderly Memorial Concert and family tickets can be purchased in person at 43 Fair Street, Drogheda.
