The Kennedy Summer School was founded in 2012 by barrister, author and Irish Times columnist Noel Whelan. He was joined by William Keilthy the Vice-chair of the John F. Kennedy Trust in New Ross and Sean Reidy who was then Chief Executive of the Trust. The first Kennedy Summer School was held in September 2012 as curtain raiser for the 50th Anniversary celebrations of President Kennedy’s visit to New Ross in June 2013. The Kennedy Summer School is now an annual event of talks, interviews and presentations held in St Michael’s Theatre New Ross and in a number of nearby venues over three days every September. It is truly a festival of Irish and American History, Politics and Culture and has already established itself as a leading event in the Irish and Irish American political, media and cultural calendar. The Summer School is designed to build on the relationship which the town has with the Kennedy family and on the work of the John F Kennedy Trust and New Ross Municipal District Council
