Christmas in Rostrevor
Christmas in Rostrevor by Killian McEvoy, featuring Kilbroney Parish Church, was a special commission by Rostrevor Post Office in 2011, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of its establishment in Bridge Street, Rostrevor.
It was first issued as Christmas Card, then as a set of Limited Edition Prints. It has also been used to promote various community based projects.
Thanks to Kevin and Mary Hanna, Rostrevor, for kind permission to reproduce the image.
A sample of the Christmas Card from the 30th Anniversary project is included.
Rostrevor Light Orchestra rehearse in the Parish Church for their Christmas Concerts. They used this image on the front cover of their Programme Brochure for their first Concert. They used an updated image of the same scene, on the front cover of their next Christmas Concert Brochure two years later.
