Féile na Gaeilge / Irish Language Day: Bealtaine

Returning to Our Senses / Beo Bríomhar Arís

Presented in partnership with the Hedge School / Scoil Scairte at the Trailblazery, Ireland

Open to Gaeilge enthusiasts of all levels, from the absolute beginner to the advanced speaker.

Saturday, May 13

Tickets and info: irishartscenter.org

Our 2023 language celebration explores the themes of the season of Bealtaine, which marks the transition from dark to light—from giamos to samos —and is a powerful pivot point on the Wheel of the Year, the map handed down to us by the ancients that honors the living and the dying.

Presented with generous support from Irish Institute of New York

The Hedge School, a cultural learning platform that weaves together Irish heritage, language, folklore and wisdom, will lead this day of exploration and kinship through a series of workshops, conversation circles, film, and more.
