Ciorcal comhrá (Irish-language circle)and lecture, Kathleen O'Donnell,  “Gaelic Culture under Siege: Hedge Schools and Revolutionary Movements”

We are delighted to announce a new initiative developed in collaboration with the Greek-Irish Society, dedicated to the promotion of Irish language and culture.

Entitled Caint agus Cultúr (Speech and Culture), this project will feature a monthly Ciorcal comhrá (Irish-language conversation circle and class), offering participants the opportunity to engage in conversational Irish in a relaxed and welcoming environment. Each session will be followed by a lecture, film screening, or other cultural event related to Ireland.

Participants are welcome to attend either part of the programme or the full session. All levels are welcome, including beginners with no prior knowledge of Irish.

The series will commence on Sunday, 26 April 2026, with the following schedule:
• 16:00 – Ciorcal comhrá
• 17:00 – Lecture by Kathleen O'Donnell, independent scholar: “Gaelic Culture under Siege: Hedge Schools and Revolutionary Movements” (delivered both in person and online)
