About
Ireland's Great Hunger Museum was founded in 2012 in Hamden, Connecticut, as part of Quinnipiac University, to document and educate the public on the Irish Great Famine of 1845–1852, as well as its causes and consequences. In addition to literature and artifacts, the museum contains the world's largest collection of Great Hunger-related art by both contemporary and 19th-century Irish and Irish-American artists.
