The Rising Road

We may be optimists but we do feel there's an end in sight!  Join us for a night of music by The Gaes, dance by Marjorie Hopkins and all woven together with stories by Ciarán Myers!

Snacks and drinks (alcohol and non) will be available for purchase.

Tickets will be available at the door.

We are asking that in the interest of wellbeing for all attending, performing and volunteering that proof of vaccine is shown and masks are worn when not eating or drinking.  We appreciate your understanding.
