July 28 - August 9
The Writing Home summer school has announced its two week programme -- featuring poets and authors David Wheatley, Molly McCloskey, Nuala Ní Chonchúir, Martin Gale, Mary Costello and others. The course will be based in Maynooth and aims to draw on the historical and cultural riches of Kildare, Wicklow and Dublin.
Our third annual Irish Arts Center’s Book Day was a huge success and we couldn’t have done it without our sponsors and volunteers who helped us hand out thousands of free books by Irish and Irish-American authors across the boroughs of New York City.
Interested in participating in 2014? For book donation and sponsorship opportunities promoting this day of literacy and Irish culture, contact rachael@irishartscenter.org. For volunteer opportunities, contact volunteer@irishartscenter.org.
