About the Famine Institute
To commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Irish Famine, Boston's Irish community unveiled a $1 million memorial park on June 28,1998.

Located in downtown Boston, the park is sited along the city's Freedom Trail, and is visited annually by over three million people. The committee has also established an Irish Famine Institute to help people still suffering from famine today.
