Come Visit Us at the Lisburn Festival!

The Lisburn Community Fire Company's Old Fashioned Festival is this week, August 5 - 8, at the fire company's grounds. There will be rides, great food and . . . the Celebrate Lisburn! booth.

This week members of the committee will be manning two booths near the social hall. There will be people on hand to answer questions about the upcoming book, and lots of great items to buy to help us raise funds to print it!



Chances will be sold to win one of Emma Burn's Lisburn door toppers. Orders for these beautifully hand painted boards will also be taken.

Local artist Earl Blust has graciously offered to have copies made of his oil painting depicting the old Lisburn mill. There will be copies of the painting on display. Prints on canvas or acid free paper will be available for order.
