Free Admission

Cumann na mBan badge from NMI- Decorative Arts & History Handling Collection
'But while Ireland is not free I remain a rebel, unconverted and unconvertible. There is no word strong enough for it. I am pledged as a rebel, an unconvertible rebel, because I am pledged to the one thing—a free and independent Republic...' - Constance Markievicz, 1922.
