DIY Irish: How to learn the Irish Language for free online

This event has ended

Online, Wednesday 27th January

Not to learn Irish is to miss the opportunity of understanding what life in this country has meant and could mean in a better future; it is to cut oneself off from ways of being at home.” –Seamus Heaney

Join Úna-Minh Kavanagh for this special Zoom workshop with the Seamus Heaney: Listen Now Again exhibition as she guides you through the online resources available to learn Irish. This workshop is suitable for beginners or those who want to brush up on their Irish. It is a chance to upskill and enjoy the Irish language this New Year.

In 2017, Úna-Minh won the award for Social Activist of the Year with U Magazine for her initiative, ‘We Are Irish’ and now edits the good news website WeAreIrish.ie. She’s a blogger and a live streamer who broadcasts in English and in the Irish language.
