International Women’s Day 8th March 2023

9th March 2023

To mark International Women’s Day, Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann and Cois na hAbhna Archive have produced a short video tribute to some of the many extraordinary women who made a significant contribution to Irish Traditional Music and Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann during its formative years. Covering the first 25 years of the organisation, it features a selection of those inspirational women who emerged as, leaders, teachers, organisers and outstanding artists, helping to to build the fledgeling organisation into what is now a recognised world leader in the field of traditional arts, with 19 cultural centres in Ireland and branches around the globe. If you would like to become involved with the work of Comhaltas, why not contact us at www.comhaltas.ie to find a centre or a branch near you, where you can be sure of a chéad míle fáilte.
