On Wednesday 18th February 2015, I visited the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum in Cultra to see their exhibition on Irish dancing entitled, "A Step in Time." This was a brilliant 'step BACK in time' as on display were Irish dancing dresses from the 1930s, 1950s, 1970s, 1980s and 2010. Also there was plenty of information on how Irish dancing started and developed from dancing at the crossroads to the World and International Championships. Definitely worth a trip to see the exhibition which runs until January 2016.
